 Rattitude Problem

I've told y'all that it is Bob's job to pee over every spot in my mom's backyard where her dog might have peed. He takes that job very seriously too.
Well, this Saturday we were over there and he finished his job of marking the backyard and we were sitting in her living room. My mom says to me "look at Bob" and he was lifting his leg and peeing on the door jamb into her bedroom! I hollared at him, using his full name so he'd know he was in deep trouble. He stopped peeing and slunk over to his Grandma and jumped up in her lap for protection.
He is completely housebroken, or at least I thought he was! What in the world made him mark the inside of her house? |

| It seems to reason if he only marks behind your mom's dog then mom's dog had peed ther eariler. Bad Bob, thats what happens when you leave him in a cage (last avatar) too lon, they become wild beast!! hahahah |

| Well, Grandma petting him and telling him that it was okay is not going to help break him of it. |

| probably because her dog peed there and he had to cover the spot with his scent. my chi does that when we go to my moms house, and he gets in trouble for it!!!! |

Bob and all her other grandkids, human and fur, can do no wrong in Grandma's eyes. She was a lot meaner when she was raising me and my sister.  |

BOB!!
This reminds me of the very first time I ever saw Nak (Buddy's dad)...when he was "just visiting," I had no idea I'd end up keeping him. He ran in the open door, marked the door jam and ran out so fast that I didn't fully realize what he'd done until he was out the door. Great first impression, huh? |

Meh... Murphy's got me desensitized to it. I practically carry around a sponge and urine neutralizing spray everywhere I go when he's lose in the house. Crated - he's great. On a lead... he's great. Outside... he's great. On his own, the world is his toilet. And he does not flush.
Back to your dog... sounds like he's not "fixed" and is just doing some teritorial marking. Is he fixed?
