I just signed up. Nice site. I have a male jackapoo about 8 months old. He was easy to house train. (Pad trained him from about 7 weeks old). He uses pads all the time or we let him outside on the porch and theres a screen out there that he thinks is the same thing. SO thats good. But, here lately he's done a few things i dont understand. One night, he was standing on my wife and he started peeing. I thought it was funny but she didnt :D . Then, he's pee'd on a few blankets while we were using them. Just lastnight he pee'd in his crate right when i put him in it to go to bed. I dont know if he done it because he didnt wanna go to bed, or marking his territory. It just doesnt make sense, I know he knows better. He dont just pee out in the middle of no where, and he dont even do the other every day. Please help out if you can. THanks

If it is not a UTI or other medical condition, it sounds like it is a fight for dominance. There is lots of good information on this site for issues like this. I'd get him into the vet, and checked out. Also, has he been neutered yet?

Im pretty sure its not a medical condition. Its not like he pee's where ever or anything. He just pee's in certain places sometimes. Im pretty sure he does it on purpose. He hasn't been neutered yet.

I definitely agree that he's probably marking and you need to get him neutered ASAP... Some dogs who start marking before being neutered will keep doing it also.

A dog doesn't just "let go" and pees for marking. To me it does sound like something is irritating and needs to be checked out. The earlier you catch it, the easier it will be to treat.
