Getting him neutered will help. Also a Belly Band. You really should be crate training him though and not letting him have the run of the house.

Just because her dog is unaltered does not mean she is breeding him. There are health reasons why some dogs should not be neutered, you should have some consideration for that.
We had a Pom growing up who was neutered at 6 months, and he had a few places in the house that he always marked. We were constantly cleaning up after him...but this was before there were many products available to deter this behavior. Clean up with a product like Nature's Miracle to completely remove the oder (your dog will still smell it even if you can't).
Have you moved to a new place? A dog will mark to make it smell more like home. Urinating in the house could also be a sign that of urinary tract problems, it wouldn't hurt to have a check at the vet, it's better to be safe than sorry.
My Great Pyrenees is also not castrated, he has marked in my house once. When this happened, he was on complete restriction and was not let out of my sight. Sure this was an inconvenience for me, but he needed additional training that marking was NOT acceptable indoors. I also bought Poochie Bells and hung them on the door, it was very easy to train him to ring the bells when he wanted to go outside (since he's WAY too big to install a doggie door).
Anyway, good luck to you, be patient and diligent and you will have your dog marking only outside!

generally you would neuter at approx 4 to 6 months old to prevent this from starting. Unfortunately as this was not done, neutering now though will reduce it will not guarantee it will stop it.
Also, you only castrate a dog if it has testicular cancer or for medical reason. Neutering and Castration are not the same thing.

The longer you wait to have your dog neutered, the worse it will get. Also, if they are neutered at a later age, it is harder for them to get over these habits.
There are so many unwanted animals out there, there is no reason to be breeding him.
check out aspca.org and they have a list of local resources in the community for low cost neutering... vets are too expensive

You can look for a Belly Band. When the dog pee's .. his urine will soak into the band and he'll be wet. Eventually he will not want to get wet, therefore not pee. This goes on in the house, and taken off when he goes outside.

Otherwise, get him neutered.
Hope that helps!

Get him neutered.
It will most likely stop the behavior, your dog will have less of a chance of getting cancer, and your dog won't contribute to unwanted litters of puppies.

The only way to stop it is to have him neutered.
