| Do females mark? Tessa seems to be "marking" in the house. She will pee and poop on the pee pad or ring the bell to go out and she was just spayed about a month ago. There seems to be very little pee when she does it and she only does it in my bedroom on the carpet. It really seems like she is marking but I don't know if females do that? Any thoughts out there.......

Donating YT 11K Club Member | yes i have heard some do. London mistakes rugs for her pee pads, so i guess that is a form of marking. Also when i walk her se pees on every spot of grass, tree, etc. She is weird lol

| At first I thought she was mistaking the rug for a pee pad but her pad is downstairs. She will get up in the middle of the night and go down to use the pad. She seems to "mark" when I go in the shower or I am in the closet.

| As most know I have 6 retired racing Greyhounds and the "marking" that you see is not what I see in the girls here. Darby will pee "outside" right over where ever any of the other girls have gone. Still wet and a puddle and Darby is peeing right on top of the other girls pee. So I am not sure if what you are experiencing is true marking or not.

| I think some females do. I've noticed that everytime Bella goes outside to potty, Chloe will potty in the same spot right after her.

YES, they will lift their leg just like the little men ..they mark each other, mark the water bowl, mark when one pees on the pee pad it becomes a pee fest all others must join in and mark it...watch out sometimes they will even mark you!!

| Oh my gosh I've never heard of a female marking. I would probably call the vet just to rule out a bladder infection.

| Niki if a female is intact and around other intact females they will mark, its not an infection...

Yorkie Lover Donating Member | YES, girls do mark!! Magic is probably a worse marker than Captain...when we go for walks she stops to "mark" more than anyone else and has done this since she was little. Heaven our new little one staying with us will mark as well...and her, Magic, and Captain will really get going in the backyard marking each other's pee. They don't mark in the house that often but if someone does pee in the house, everyone has to pee as well. So don't be sexist and think that just because they are girls they don't mark...they do and they will!!

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | Yep girls do mark..... When I am out on a walk with Zoey if she even remotely smells another dogs pee she is right there marking that spot to let them know she has been there...lol. The peeing on rugs in the house...dunno because I have to watch Zoey like a hawk with them. She likes cushy things under her bum I guess...lol.
