jenna Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Hey all, I've had a read through other toileting posts but couldnt find anything so thought i'd ask Alba (Maltese) is 12 weeks old now , she seems to Pee everytime we come home or wake up in the mornings as she gets very excited and its not normailly just in the one spot , she will do a little bit, then run around get more excited then pee some more as she is running etc I try not work her up. i have tried ignoring her for 5 - 10 min before i let her out?? but she seems to get even more excitied then , Is there anywhere way to stop it?? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puggy_puggy Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 I think that my pug girl only grew out of peeing in excitment a few years ago. She is now 6. My only suggestion is to make sure she is toileted frequently so her bladder isn't full when she becomes excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny123 Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 My girl is three and still does it . I do the frequent toileting, particularly when I know there'll be excitment (like dad coming home from work) - but she still seems to keep a bit of pee aside for special occasions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
becks Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 most seem tpo grow out of it in a few months or so. Best just to usher her outside first thing in the morning and have the exciting welcomes out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjelkier Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 My boy did that for a few months too but thankfully grew out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princesszelda Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Our Bella does this - she actually just started doing it regularly. We also don't make a fuss over her when we come it, but it doesn't seem to matter. It is just a little pee, we take her outside right away and she does the rest of it in the garden.

luvsdogs Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 It's perfectly normal for some puppies. April did it for about the 1st year when I got home, vet visits & if someone frightened her. She eventually grew out of it. Tilba on the other hand doesn't do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tassie Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 IMHO, it's important to treat this differently from housetraining failures - submissive/excitement urination is not really under the dog's control. Like any behaviour you don't want, it's important to ignore it - but at the same time, try to avoid setting up the situations when it occurs - so as people have suggested - keep mornings and homecoming extremely low key - take the pup/dog outside as calmly and matter of factly as possible - maybe even not acknowledging the pup straight away but just heading outside - and then making a huge fuss as soon as pup wees outside. Same thing if pup is a bit scared or overwhelmed - e.g. by visitors - just have people ignore the pup, and calmly take pup outside ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppop Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 My puppy used to wee with excitement and joy every morning when I said hello, every evening when I got home and said hello, and every time anyone bent down to say hello to her. She was defnitely not nervous and instead was so excited, just like your dog, and her whole body would wiggle with joy and excitement as she weed! At shows she'd be all beautifully washed and blow-dried and with her sparkling white coat, and then as we walked to the ring someone would bend down to say what a beautiful puppy she was...and she was SO happy to meet them and SO excited and she'd WEE everywhere! Mad dash to try and sort it out before she was actually due in the ring! My comment is that we found no way to stop her doing it, but the GOOD NEWS is that now at nearly a year old she hardly EVER wees with excitement anymore. The only times she has done in in the past 3 months is when someone new has come to our house and said hello to her, and very occassionally at shows when she sees her breeder! Never with us anymore - and it's a monthly occurence now, not a many-times-daily one. So - be patient, take precautions (eg new people should meet her outside rather than in the living room) and she will hopefully be through this stage soon!

Sheridan Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Learn to move quickly. Seriously, my last dog did excitable wees. We just learned to move out of his way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tambaqui Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 My Miniature Pinscher Pup Clancy doesn't do it at home, but upon his visit to my grandmother, he left a whole lot of mess in her room at the nursing home! Did one while I was in the bathroom, then did another one right in front of her as she brought us our tea after making them and then did one on her bed as I was holding him to take outside to go to toilet before leaving for home! Left me so embarassed and in utter shock! I ended up apologising to her for his leak everywhere! I just hope the room doesn't smell ! But I think it possibly being overexcited being away from home for a few hours and Clancy was getting on well with my grandmother he wanted lots of cuddles and kisses and there was several visitors from nurses to helpers and caterers saying hello and patting him. So he had a long day and he went to Drouin after the visit to see the town and got so excited as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
