• Since moving out of London and getting a dog (and kid) I've cycled a handful of times in two years. Had to start running with the dog just to get some sort of exercise.
    So my 16 month-old border terrier likes to pee. On everything he shouldn't. But never indoors, it's a scent marking thing. This week he peed on

    1. Mans jacket draped over fence around basketball court
    2. Teenagers football that came to rest near him
    3. My lawnmower when I went to empty the grass catcher bit
    4. All the garden things - furniture, plant pots, washing pole, sliding doors, drainpipe, parasol etc
    5. His own tennis ball mid game of fetch
    6. My brothers car tyres (he doesn't know this)
    7. The Ercol showrooms welcome mat
    8. Local businesses advertising A board

    Vet said removing his kiwis probably won't have an effect. I've got some of 'don't pee here' spray from Christmas when I was scared he'd water the tree but I can't spray everything. I'll take ideas but this was more of a rant.

  • Our dog cut his marking down by half after having us kiwis lopped. We did it because of his straying, but it was an unexpected bonus.

    That said, neutering is only supposed to stop this sort of thing going if you do it young enough.
