Funny Story-pooping in petsmart! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

fabioadams · 11-07-2007, 05:39 PM

A few days ago I took my Fabio to petsmart to get his nails clipped. I always make sure he goes to the bathroom before because we sometimes spend alot of time in petsmart. Well after his clipping, when we were walking around, he start to go on the floor! Pee and poo! I was freaking out! He had never done that and he had been in pet stores before. One of the attendants told me that he simply smelled all the other dogs who had used the floor before and decided to mark his territory! I was so embarassed though! Has anyone else had this problem? Or does anyone have any embarassing stories about their yorkie?

Oh yeah. Bianca my Bichon does it everytime. I always say Im so sorry!, they say it happens allllll the time. LOL

Anna Banana · 11-07-2007, 06:34 PM

Lol! Yeah, its no big deal there. Thats why they have those cleaning station things.

fabioadams · 11-07-2007, 06:38 PM

Ha ha, yea I've had him since February and hes never done this! I just cleaned it up at that station, but boy was I embarassed!

xnatalie · 11-07-2007, 06:44 PM

you think that's bad, mika always pees on the floor, even when i take her out to go before. and the in petsmart i go to, they don't have a cleaning station, so it makes me feel 10x worse

Coby pooped once and peed once. But yeah, that's why they have the cleaning stations. But what aggravates me are the people who don't clean up. All of a sudden you find yourself in a puddle of pee that doesn't belong to you!!

Ugh! I know! We'll be walking along, and I'll have to tug Wobie away from another dog's pee! Gross!

Not yet. But you can clean it your self of they will charge a 1.00 and they will do it. LOL. But that might be for the big dogs.

I have found a solution to this problem because Ellie does it all the time. Pick 'em up.

She isn't allowed to walk in petstores. Of course, a couple times ago she threw up.

We took Valentino to Country Junction, a huge general store that allows you to bring your furbabies as you shop. As we were walking around, looking at things I let him on his leash...usually he is in a blanket in the cart. Well, he decided he needed to pee-pee....unfortunately for us, he decided the best place to do it was on a display of Cheese curls!!!!! I was so embarrassed!

chachi · 11-08-2007, 07:44 AM

Yes chachi did that before at petsmart and I was embarrassed
