he doesn't hike his leg when he urinates, he just squats like a lady... he's 2 1/2 now and i have seen him hike his leg maybe twice in his life, he was neutered at around a year old, could that be why he doesn't? let me know

Different dogs prefer different things. I know a female dog who lifts her leg. A female :eek: My BC just stands there while doing his stuff. Ahem. LOL

my male shepherd has never lifted his leg...he'll be 2 in Dec. he also has never 'marked territory'. it's soooo funny...my hubby kept wondering when he was gonna 'act like a male'. seems he's too lazy! hehe my dog was neutered at 7 months old...he'd never lifted his leg prior to that, either. I've heard that lots of male dogs don't, so I guess our boys aren't that big of sissies. :)

LOL! My husband said the same thing about Quincy, I told him to get right out there and show him how it's done.

I think most males that were neutered before a year won't lift their leg. Boris doesn't either, but I prefer personally... Nothing like a dog that can't aim and repaints your shoes.

Farley was about 2 yo before he started consistently lifting his leg. He was neutered at 6 months. He now lifts all the time. I don't think neutering has anything to do with it. I have known male dogs who just don't lift their leg.

Brutus just walks then stands and pees. He turned 5 mos yesterday so I guess he will when he is ready. Maggie however is the only female dog I have ever had that lifts her leg to pee. My dogs are confused.

Hunter was neutered as an adult and only lifts his leg when he's marking. Otherwise, he stretches out like a horse and pees, LOL.

I have male dogs who hike their leg when ever they "go" but I also have males that they squat when they just need to urinate and hike their leg when they are marking their territory.
