How Common Is It That Neutred Males Mark I was wondering how common it is to see neutred males marking long after they have been fixed? And how do you use a belly band? What I am asking is when you are using a belly band how do you know when they have to pee? |
My male Maltese was neutered at 6 months and he never marked prior to that. But for some reason around 8 months when we were over at a relative's house, he started marking like a fiend. He's about 1 year and 3 months now and he still marks on occasion. Ever since we introduced our Yorkie he's been marking a ton around the house which is unusual for him since he'd never done it in the house before. But in a word, neutering doesn't always keep males from marking. I use a belly band when we are at other people's houses to keep him from actually getting pee everywhere.. for us it's more a pee catcher than a training tool. I've heard that the way to train w/ belly bands is that the dog will be uncomfortable being wet so will train to not pee in those areas, but personally I haven't seen that deter Tuffy.. he'll walk around in a wet belly band all day and not give a care. :rolleyes: |
common, with us Sully was neutered at 6 mo. and is now 8 months and 1 week...and he marks. Not indoors though, so that's a good thing. We don't mind it, but we really did think it was supposed to stop when he got neutered, oh well. The thing is, it only started a week before he got neutered?! |
Thanks so much for your replies, Sebastian is only 13 weeks but I like to know things ahead of time. |
archie's neutered and he marks all the time, and this 6 year old pomeranian is neutered and marks as well. marking is really just like saying, "I was here." |
Cajun was neutered at five months and he has never marked. I feel silly asking this but what is a belly band?? |
