Dogs ought to mark their territory – it is life. And dogs do it. Accept it. You cannot dismiss the inate urges and routines of a dog – but you may alter them
It is a dog’s way of communication with the world. They are saying “I am here”
It is a normal behavioral characteristic but may be rather annoying to dog owners. Your house get soaked in the odor from your dog and there is a cost for the clean up. Your property may become damaged. But dogs don’t recognise they are doing something wrong.
Here are a few tips to help:
1. Prevention is key – one of the best ways to stop your dog from urine marking is to have him operated on. Getting your dog neutered or spayed will reduce natural chemicals and hormones that get primed by sexual heat. Your vet will support and advise you.
2. Take his items and place them where you don’t want him to urinate – he will respect his own possessions. This could mean placing his feed dish or water bowl next to an area that he may have marked. This might prevent him from marking that area again. Dogs are naturally clean animals and do not want destruct the areas in which they sleep or eat.
3. Drugs and medications may help. Dogs may be stressed or frightened. This may cause them to urinate. The history of the dog may aid in settling if this is the case. Ask your veterinarian in regards to possible drug treatments. He will be best to advise you.

 THE book to buy for aid with those fearful/shy dogs!

Plus, it’s an easy read and humorous!

Comprehensive Advice for Owners of Fearful Dogs
By Mychelle Blake
There are few books out there that aid owners with timid or fearful dogs, which may be one of the most discouraging and hindering and heartrenching behavings for dog owners to deal with. This new book provides a wealth of info – from elaborate tips on how to work with a assortment of fear issues (noise, objects, thunder, etc.) to suggestions on “alternative” therapies such as using Dog Appeasing Pheramone, homeopathic remedies, Anxiety Wraps, pharmaceutical intervention, and much more. I highly commend this book to owners of fearful dogs and to dog trainers/shelter workers/rescuers who steadily deal with timid and fearful dogs.

 It seems ok…
By RarelyReviews
The other reviews gave me such high hopes when it comes to this book and perchance my expected values were too high to be honorable but I’m not overly impressed so far. There’s not one thing in truth defective with the book but it covers so some subjects that I felt details were skipped that must have been included and still I’m going to struggle to support my dog. The chapters that refer to queer fears are too short and are less in regards to helping to rectify the problem than they are in regards to the background to the problem itself. Also the book says it may be read cover to cover or merely used as a reference book by users skipping to applicable chapters. That is not so. Really you need to the right way read the original few sectionalizations before you skip to the section when it comes to your peculiar problem. Really it’s no disturb to read around the subject but why does the book assert to be capable to be employed in this way??
On the other hand I think her counsel is solid and there is surely utile data in there, exceptionally if this is the introductory time you’ve even thought when it comes to attempting to help your dog in this way!! I’m perfectly going to give it a go but I wish I had a little more guidance from the book that i on purpose purchased to offer myself guidance. In this review I want to point out the bad things in regards to the book rather than list all the good things and there are already so a lot of magnificent reviews!!
On a side note, I was unimpressed with the author’s habit of subtly (you in all likelihood won’t detect it unless you’ve read the books by the writers that’s she’s doubting) belittling other cited dog experts within the book. This was unnecessary and a little petty. Surely most of the people she indirectly belittled are doing good work too and so if Wilde and the other writers are all endeavoring for the same goals, only doing so in dissimilar ways, then surely mocking their theories only serves to contaminate the industry a little bit more.
