| Mister Tobys ! Ok, here it is ! I'm about to pull my hair because this has caused me to go completely crazy ! Toby has taken his territory marking to the next level ! He is now marking any animal or person that he can ! I don't know how to stop him ! If I'm right there I can sometimes catch and stop him, But really , who can actually be everywhere all the time ! I need help here ! Please, if anyone has any ideas to share that may help I would be so happy to try them, since I am at a stand still ! Thank you in advance ! |

| The only thing I know that will help is Belly Bands. Order a few and keep them on him whenever you can't be right there to supervise. They are sneaky, all it takes is a few seconds and they can go place a mark or two. Believe me, I know. Ben is getting better now that the puppies are all gone (except the one we are keeping). After this litter was born, he must have felt threatened, because he marked everywhere! I could not move a table that I wasn't seeing the leg had been marked -- and wastebaskets -- how weird is that!?! So, I ordered some belly bands. That works. He just doesn't do it when he has abelly band on. I just have to remove it when we go out and put it back on when he comes in the house. I was about ready to have him neutered, but since he is doing better now, I am going to give him a few more months.

| I've never heard of belly bands, but I will surely check them out ! I'm leaning towards neutering him, but have heard that doesn't always stop the marking ! Thanx ! |

| Neutering may help, although I had one that would mark after a man came in the house! |
