How do you get your dog to stop urinating in the same place?

Question

I have cleaned the carpet. But she still pees in that same place, sometimes.

Answer 1

She pees in that same place because of the odor. To remove the odor, mix 12 oz. hydrogen peroxide, 1-1/2 teaspons baking soda, 1 teaspoon of liquid dish detergent. Mix well and saturate the stain and let sit until it dries. Make sure you pour enough to saturate down to the padding. Do not scrub! The liquid should start fizzing and bubbling (the combination creates oxygen) and it will lift the odor and stain from all the way down to the padding! If she has been using this same spot a very long time, it might require two applications, but it has never failed to work for me or any of my friends/family. (It has saved many a carpet that was ready to be replaced because of the odor!)

Most other odor/stain removers only work on the surface and the pet can still smell the urine remaining in the padding. When the solution dries, there may be some baking soda residue on the carpet ... just vacuum it up!

Dispose of unused solution, because if it is sealed and stored, the container can explode! This solution also works on blood stains, red wine stains and a variety of other hard to remove stains.

Bonus: VERY INEXPENSIVE REMEDY!

Answer 2

Even though you've cleaned the spot she still smells the pee and will continue to go there. Try using a product like Urine Erase or something similar that will completely get rid of the urine from the carpet, putting her food there like someone else suggested might work too - dogs usually won't go where they eat.

Answer 3

She has left her scent there and will keep returning to that spot. Oh boy, do I know that misery. We went through that with our dog while she was sick, when she got better she decided she liked doing that in the den. First you must get rid of the scent. Buy a product at the store for this. Or use vinegar and water. Blot up spot and lay a rag dampened with a vinegar & water solution. We found it helps to keep the dog out of that room, entirely, unless we are right there with her. At bedtime she is tied up so she can't roam into that room while we are asleep. Take the dog outside lots. I don't like hitting or punishing the dog because they don't know why you are upset. It is better to reward the dog for doing it outside, with a kind "good dog" or treat. Good luck!

Answer 4

You'll need to completely sanitize the area with a product that can eliminate the odor. Remember, dogs can smell things you can't. We recommend a product called Nature's Miracle. It's available in most large pet stores (and on-line). It cleans and deordorizes, and returns the area to it's normal ph.

You'll also, apparently, need to house-train your dog.

We actually suggest that dog owners NOT train their dogs to go on wee-wee pads or newspaper, because this trains the dog to eliminate inside your house instead of outside. The dog cannot distinguish between it being OK to pee on the pad, and not on any other paper or fabric on the floor...

To train a dog to go outside, you need to first put the dog on a feeding schedule. We suggest feeding the dog at the SAME TIME every day. This helps to "program" her bowels and bladder to regular feeding and elimination times.

Don't leave food out for the dog all day. If she eats all day, she'll poop all day. But keep plenty of fresh water available to her.

Dogs usually have to potty about 10-15 minutes after they eat, when they first wake up in the morning, and when they wake up from a nap. Use these opportune times to take the pooch outside. As soon as she goes potty, praise her a lot for being a good dog.

Dogs will also walk in tight circles with their nose to the ground when they have to go to potty. Whenever you see this behavior ask the dog, "potty outside?" and take her out immediately. Again, as soon as she goes potty, praise her a lot for being a good dog.

If you're consistent and vigilant she should be house-trained in no time.

Answer 5

you need to purchase a twig which you placed around and on the factors your canines has urinated. It stops them going there back. additionally you will get domestic dog preparation pads which the older canines might use (they have a scent which draws them to urinate on the pad). it must be a case of the older canines being disenchanted and cacting out with reference to the recent domestic dog. I relatively have heard maximum of comments of ways they act out in all varieties of techniques haha basically determine you lavish the comparable quantity of interest on the older canines infront of the domestic dog, and likewise take the older canines for a stroll to urinate via itself without the domestic dog. sturdy success Mate! additionally ask the Vet too, coz they might have great suggestions!

Answer 6

Put a pee pad over the spot if she absolutely insists she must go there. At least it won't soak into your carpet anymore. Try to clean it with one of those enzyme cleaners you can buy at all the pet stores. I think it's called Nature's Miracle.

Answer 7

At the petstores you'll find cleaners with enzymes it it. The enzymes will neutralize the spot.

Also, if she's never done this before and is now starting to pee in the house, you may want to have her checked out for a bladder infection. One of my dogs started going in the house. It turned out he had a bladder infection.

Answer 8

Block her access to it

Use the odor absorbing cleaners especially for pets. The carpet pad has the smell even if you cleaned it. Is she a puppy? Crate training works really well.

Answer 9

Place her food bowl there. She won't pee where she eats.

Also, get a product that will neutralize the odor, not just cover it up. If she smells it (the pee), she'll go there again.
