why does my fully trained dog, pee where I sit and sleep? She leaves my hubby alone. Any ideas?

Question

She is a year old, a cocker spaniel. Good natured, easy going and pretty sweet. She loves my bed but as she is so often dirty, I won't let her up. Is she being defiant, marking territory or what. I'm almost out of patience with her.

Answer 1

Could she be in heat? Or has a male dog marked his territory in those same spots before? My dogs (female) started peeing in the same spots that a male dog that we babysat for two days had marked his territory. Our females were completely housebroken til the male came over. It has taken us two months to break them of this, and lots of disinfectant sprays and cleaning supplies. You have to get that smell off the area so she won't keep going back to it.
Also, it sounds weird, but did she just start doing this when you're on your period?? My females act really weird toward me when I'm on my period. They have that instinct, and animals act weird sometimes.

Answer 2

Honestly, an untrained dog can be a real pain - a risk to himself, his owner and to other people and animals. Owning an undisciplined dog may result to:
- Destruction to your home
- Social isolation
- Accidents
- Injuries
- Legal claims against you
- Stress to all concerned
- The dog being unwanted

Canines that always get their own way will believe that life revolves around them and for that reason they must be important. Since dogs are looking for controlling different resources than humans, their bid for power usually goes undetected until it’s too late. Obedience and house training your dog and ensuring he’s not raised to a top position inside the home will keep your relationship with him well-balanced in your favor, as it must be for satisfaction all round.

Answer 3

bad puppy...we have the same problem with our new malimute yet he's male, gets excited, and loves to mark. Thats the choice for picking a male unneutered dog. Spay her or just never leave her alone in a room without supervision and not on a bed at anytime. She's eithier doing it to mark her spot or she's planning to torture you for the rest of her existence. Blame the bf he taught her lol

Having a trained dog isn’t the same as having a balanced dog, but if your dog knows a few basic commands, it can be helpful when tackling problem behaviors — existing ones or those that may develop in the future. Learn here https://tr.im/Oy0xT

So where do you start with dog obedience training? You could take a class, but it’s not necessary; you can do it yourself. In fact, with the right attitude, it can be fun for both you and your dog!
Step 1 : Sit
This is one of the easiest dog obedience commands to teach, so it’s a good one to start with.
• Hold a treat close to your dog’s nose.
• Move your hand up, allowing his head to follow the treat and causing his bottom to lower.
• Once he’s in sitting position, say “Sit,” give him the treat, and share affection.
Repeat this sequence a few times every day until your dog has it mastered. Then ask your dog to sit before mealtime, when leaving for walks, and during other situations where you’d like him calm and seated.
Step 2 : Come
This command can help keep a dog out of trouble, bringing him back to you if you lose grip on the leash or accidentally leave the front door open.
• Put a leash and collar on your dog.
• Go down to his level and say, “Come,” while gently pulling on the leash.
• When he gets to you, reward him with affection and a treat.
Once he’s mastered it with the leash, remove it — and practice the command in a safe, enclosed area.
Step 3 : Down
This can be one of the more difficult commands in dog obedience training. Why? Because the position is a submissive posture. You can help by keeping training positive and relaxed, particularly with fearful or anxious dogs.
• Find a particularly good smelling treat, and hold it in your closed fist.
• Hold your hand up to your dog’s snout. When he sniffs it, move your hand to the floor, so he follows.
• Then slide your hand along the ground in front of him to encourage his body to follow his head.
• Once he’s in the down position, say “Down,” give him the treat, and share affection.
Repeat it every day. If your dog tries to sit up or lunges toward your hand, say “No” and take your hand away. Don’t push him into a down position, and encourage every step your dog takes toward the right position. After all, he’s working hard to figure it out!

Answer 5

It could be domanice issue with her, does she realize you are alpha female in the household. Or it could be behavior problem due to not spending enough time with her or she may not get expel all her energy thru the day. Dogs are happiest when they have some type of job or walked daily.

Answer 6

She is marking her spot I would have her spayed right away. Also , start closing the door to your oom to keep her off the bed and don't let her sleep with you and your hubby.

Answer 7

Cockers are the hardest to house break.

She could be marking your territory as hers. You belong to her and everything that belongs to you belongs to her.

I brought a large dog in one time and I knelt on the floor to make sure everone was going to get along okay and my retriever hiked on my back. He wanted the other dog to know I was his.

Answer 8

I do believe your dog is jealous of you. That's what it sounds like to me.

Answer 9

female dog, right?
Yep, doesn't like you--territorial, top female and all that--it's the pack mentality. You have to show her that YOU are the dominant female in the pack--use yahoo search and type in "dominant female" and "pack" and "dog" and go from there.

Answer 10

i think you should train her to go pee and poop in the grass or put her outside in the backyard i keep my dog outside in the backyard but he pees on the cement.
