Does anyone have this problem |
|
with a male dog who pees when someone enters the house? How do you stop this behavior? The dog is a year old.

When you or anybody else enters the house, IGNORE the dog entirely. Don't look at it, don't talk to it. Make coming home as boring as possible for the dog.

4. My boy does that. He's three now and has almost stopped. |

It's only when one of my sons brings home a pretty girl. I'm not kidding, no other time does he do it. It must be a submission thing and I don't think there is any way to correct it.

A dog will mark his territory when anyone different invades it.

your dog hasn't been socialized. The excitement of meeting new people may be causing this.
Take him out and around all kinds of other people. To the park, shopping with you (at least walking outside the stores), to any gathering where there will be an assortment for him to get to know.
Our 7 year old Bouvier recently started the same behavior and when we looked we found that we hadn't been taking her out in social situations as much as we had been. Doing it regularly again has cured the problem.
Twenty-six years with Bouviers (and a few mutts for contrast) and there's not much you don't see. :)
