What is he doing? 1 Attachment(s) Not sure if my baby is marking or what! Somebody please give me a little guidance. My baby boy is ten months old. He was doing excellent in potty training with the puppy pads. I would actually say that he was potty trained. He is out of his play pen most of the time, except when the girls need a little rest from a very rough boy! lol I started letting him outside with my girls (who are outside only trained) to potty. He was doing his business out there also. Well, all of the sudden, it seems when I let him out of his play pen, he will run to a bed, blanket, pillow, almost anything on the floor and pee. I scold him and put him back in his play pen. The girls are fixed and he is not sniffing before he goes potty either. If he was sniffing, I would think he's marking. Please tell me what he's doing! |
it sounds like he is marking |
Wouldn't he be sniffing around if he was marking? Do I put the belly band back on him...or...is that going to cause problems with potty training? Will he revert back to not knowing where to potty? Boys!!!! lol They look innocent...but...behind those eyes...well, you know! |
Sounds like marking to me. I'd take him directly outside as soon as you let him out of his playpen, no stops or hesitation. Maybe carry him out so he doesn't have time to lift his leg. Give him time to walk around and get it all out. Some males just love to mark and have never met a tree or telephone pole they didn't like. If you don't have any trees nearby then try to walk him near something he can lift his leg near. If he gets it out of his system while outside he won't do it when he is inside. If he isn't neutered yet then it might be a good time to get that taken care of since whole males tend to enjoy this past time more than the neutered ones. |
