My dog is a small sized one ... a spitz. It pisses in select areas in the house. How should I stop that ? Is it becoz dogs tend to mark their teritory ? When I take it out for a walk I let it piss where it wants and it does it in 10 places in a 10 min walk. Can that be reason why it wants to do the same in the house ?

Do a dog training program, and get him a crate. Keep him in the crate, and only take him out to pee outside. THEN spend time with him and play around. Do this for a few days and then start letting him run around the house for about 10 minutes before putting him back in the crate. Then add another 5 minutes, etc, until he doesnt need to be in the crate.
Dogs wont pee in their beds.

There's a hidden scent, probably from it's own urine, that hasn't been cleaned enough. Rubbing it's nose in it will NOT help. Take it out more often. Buy a pen or small cage and keep it in there until it stops, dogs will not sleep where they pee and vice versa. There's a new product called urine-b-gone or something like that to thoroughly clean the areas that have been soiled.

You can buy potty training mats and stay vigilant with training, no dog should ever mark their territory in your home. Reprimand him when he does wrong and really praise when he's done right. Just like with anything else involving dogs. If theres one place in particular he pisses put the paper there, slowly move it over time towards the door. Eventually he will want to go out to pee. STAY VIGILANT!!!!!

My male dogs have always done this b/c of attitude. They just feel like marking. I have one male now that wears a "belly band" when he is in the house. It's kinda like a cummerbund that covers his weinie. He doesn't mind at all and it keep the furniture dry. I got them off of Ebay. Search for belly bands or weinie wraps. They work.
I have 5 dogs. I cannot even walk 2 boys together. I takes forever. They'll hike their legs on everything over & over.....

When he does it take him over to it and say in a stern voice this is NO or this is BAD. Then take him outside immediately. Don't clean it up in front of him, it becomes a power sturggle that way. Good luck.

if its a male get it neutered, if its a female go see the vet, she may have a problem but is sounds territorial. in that case make it clear that this is not acceptable behavior, but you have to do this immediately when it happens. also it never hurts to consult a behavior specialist.

He may indeed be marking. Neutering usually stops this behavior.

well.......put him outside? lol juzz joking.
Use window cleaner and spray where you don't want him/her to pee pee at ...I have found that that generally works best.
and for cat's poop pans....place baking soda in the box 1-2 times a week...it eats the odors.

a small cage for your pet...they will not pee where they sleep....and then when you take him out of the cage....take him immediatly outside.
Also there are sprays that you can buy to deter your pet from peeing on the rug......
Good luck
