What do I do with my dog that's peeing in drops all over?

Question

It just happened after I brought home a new puppy to be his playmate. He seemed scared even if he's a lot bigger. He's not eating too.

Answer 1

hes marking his territory. when he does it, you should put him outside, or put something he doesnt like there.

Answer 2

Certain breeds are more prone to bladder releases than others, especially in anxious or excited moments. This may be the problem. If your dog isn't eating in conjunction with this, it's likely just apprehension for the new situation. Animals are like people, they get used to 'their space' and when a new animal is introduced they have the same reactions we can often have (stress!). Give your dog some time to adjust and that may fix the problems. If the problems persist, contact your local vet for additional advice and alternatives.

Answer 3

It's submissive peeing. Your dog is scared. Give him a little time to get used to the new puppy.

Did you introduce the two dogs on neutral ground before bringing the puppy into the established dog's territory?

Your established dog feels challenged and is frightened (hense the not eating and submissive urinating).

Introduce the dogs slowly. Make sure each is allowed equal one on one time with you. Leave the new dog in it's crate while you play with the established dog and vice versa. Let them play together but only once your established dog is no longer afraid.

Answer 4

He might be a submissive pee-er. It happens in dogs that are shy and very submissive.

Introduce them gradually. Keep them as separated as possible, especially for feeding. Let them play together for maybe an hour a day, after a good long walk to let him do his business. Gradually increase it as your dog is more secure and successful at holding his pee.

Barring that, it might be a bladder infection. See a vet if he doesn't eat for a day or so more. Emergency if he's stopped drinking too.

Answer 5

It sounds like you've got a nervous pee-er on your hands... the not eating part would also seem to indicate that your dog is under a lot of stress... I would suggest that you contact a trainer asap. This is something that a dog will sometimes overcome on his own, but most of the time he needs acclimation and encouragement.

And sometimes, one of the dogs has to be removed from the home. (which one is your choice.) but sometimes certain dogs for whatever psychological reasons... can't get over the introduction of a new pet into the home.

Answer 6

probably coz it's nervus and will go off in a few days. This happened to my dog too and still, when he gets overly excited, like see a person he likes he just pees on the spot. just to be sure, your dog wasn't in an accident or anything was it. A sharp blow to the back, say near the spine can also cause the same thing. But most likely, it'll grow outo f it when it gets used to the new pup.

Answer 7

The dog is probably marking his territory. Normally if you bring a new dog home, its not comfortable for the dog. So he may not eat cause he's a little shy or doesn't trust the new owner as much. Try even him treats and rub his back and talk to him kindly.

Answer 8

its a dominance or excitement thing. Spike went through that when we brought Harley home too. He'll get over it but remember to tell him that he did a baaad thing or he'll continue. Also, give him some extra attention. Poor lil guy must feel like he's not good enough anymore.

Answer 9

Vet -- sounds like an infection.

Answer 10

Take him to the vet to make sure he is OK.
