Hi Lips,
I just found this:
Why has my dog suddenly begun marking in the house when he didn't do it before?
Usually it is because of feelings of insecurity or a perceived threat. This perceived threat, for example, can be an introduction of a new baby, a new pet, a visitor or even a new piece of furniture. The smell of other animals on your footwear or clothing can also trigger a dog to feel the need to mark his territory.
For example, a new baby in the home brings new sounds, smells, and people, as well as changes in routine. Your dog may not be getting as much attention as previously. Changes cause him to feel anxious, which may cause him to mark.
Some dogs feel the need to lift their leg and pee on all new things that enter your house, shopping bags, visitors belongings, new furniture, children's toys etc. Many of these dogs are lacking in confidence and by marking new objects it makes them feel more secure having deposited their own scent on these objects.
Some dogs will never mark in their own house but will embarrass you by marking if you visit a friend or relative's home. Your dog feels less secure there and feels the need to make it more comfortable to him by laying down a few of his own familiar scents.
Even a previously housetrained neutered male dog will urine mark under certain circumstances. This doesn’t mean it will become a regular problem. He may urine mark one or twice in a new home and then never do it again.
How to stop your dog marking urine in the house
Below are some tips to prevent or stop your dog peeing in the house.
Neuter
For pet dogs, early neutering will stop marking behavior in the majority of dogs. Neutering at an early age can prevent the habit forming.
For older dogs, neutering may still have the desired effect but marking in the house may have become a habit that you will have to break. Try the supervision method below.
In one study the following was found. "Our research shows that neither age at time of neutering nor duration of the problem behavior has influence on the likelihood that a behavior will change following neutering, thus one need not think that because a male dog has been engaging in problem urine marking or aggressive behavior for five years that it is too late to consider neutering. "Center for Companion Animal Health, UC Davis"
Testosterone seems to play a role in urine marking. At least one study has shown that neutering a dog at any age will help prevent it. It can't be guaranteed that neutering a dog is going to magically cure this problem but if you don't neuter a male dog, your chances of breaking the habit are greatly reduced.
Of course neutering isn't always an option as you may wish to breed your dog.
Supervise and Break the Habit
You MUST catch him in the act! DOGS LEARN QUICKLY FROM THIS
Close supervision is necessary. You must be dedicated to stop the marking behavior of your dog and you must be consistent. A couple of weeks or often much less time of intense supervision and correction can save you a lifetime of tearing your hair out trying to find a quick fix for the problem. Some people have reported that it has only taken a day or two using the intense supervision method.
Confine your dog to one area of the house where you can watch him. Shut doors to other areas of the house or barricade them off with baby gates or improvise with whatever is at hand.
If barricading is not possible another option is to put your dog on a retractable lead while he is in the house with you and for you to have total control at all times.
Make yourself a Shaker Bottle or Shaker Can
A shaker can is simply an empty cola can with a several coins inside it. The opening is taped over to prevent the coins flying out. It makes a lot of noise when you shake it up and down.
A shaker bottle is a plastic bottle with some small pebbles or coins placed inside.
Watch your dog for any signs (such as sniffing and circling) that he is even thinking about marking. The moment he begins to lift his leg shake the can once only to get his attention. The loud noise should startle him and interrupt what he is doing. As he looks towards where the noise has come from. Give him the command in a stern voice 'NO PEE'. Sometimes throwing the can in his general direction works well too but be careful not to hit him with it as you only want to startle him not harm him.
OK, so you have stopped him peeing once. Now you have to be consistent and diligent and continue with the behaviour modification each and every time you see him attempt to mark urine.
Do not rant, rave or smack your dog at any time. Punishment will make an insecure dog more insecure.
This method is not intended for house training your puppy, only for urine marking. Potty training is another issue. You may wish to read this article: How to potty train your dog or puppy
Praise him when he pees where you want him to
Don't forget to praise your dog when he marks in an appropriate place. If you are outside and he marks on a tree or other acceptable object or area tell him what a good boy he is. Tell him, 'Pee here, good boy' in a happy voice. Dogs learn quickly from positive responses to their behavior.
The message you are trying to get across to him is that urine marking isn't bad, but that marking inside the house isn't such a good idea.
When you go out
Dogs who suffer separation anxiety may pee while you are out. They are not peeing out of spite because you left them, dogs just don't think like this. They are feeling anxious at being left alone. Try leaving them an item of your worn clothing with your familiar smells on it. This just might be enough to settle their anxiety.
Confinement is the only answer for some dogs
Some dogs will never be able to be trusted with the run of the house. Although inconvenient to you it may be necessary to close doors to certain rooms and only allow freedom in the rooms he can be trusted.
Not sure if any of that helps Lips.

Zdravo Usne,
upravo sam našao ovo:
Zašto je moj pas odjednom počeo da markira u kući kada to ranije nije radio?
Obično je to zbog osećaja nesigurnosti ili uočene pretnje. Ova uočena pretnja, na primer, može biti uvođenje nove bebe, novog kućnog ljubimca, posetioca ili čak novog komada nameštaja. Miris drugih životinja na vašoj obući ili odeći takođe može izazvati psa da oseti potrebu da obeleži svoju teritoriju.
Na primer, nova beba u kući donosi nove zvukove, mirise i ljude, kao i promene u rutini. Vaš pas možda neće dobiti toliko pažnje kao ranije. Promene uzrokuju da se oseća anksioznim, što može dovesti do toga da ga obeleži.
Neki psi osećaju potrebu da podignu nogu i pišaju na sve nove stvari koje uđu u vašu kuću, torbe za kupovinu, stvari posetilaca, novi nameštaj, dečije igračke itd. Mnogi od ovih pasa nemaju samopouzdanja i obeležavanjem novih predmeta oni se osećaju sigurniji jer su naneli sopstveni miris na ove predmete.
Neki psi nikada neće obeležiti u svojoj kući, ali će vas osramotiti označavanjem ako posetite dom prijatelja ili rođaka. Vaš pas se tamo oseća manje bezbedno i oseća potrebu da mu bude udobnije postavljanjem nekoliko svojih poznatih mirisa.
Čak i kod prethodno obučenog sterilisanog mužjaka pas će pod određenim okolnostima obeležiti urin. To ne znači da će to postati redovan problem. On može da obeleži urin jednom ili dva puta u novom domu i onda to više nikada ne uradi.
Kako sprečiti da vaš pas obeležava urin u kući
Ispod su neki saveti za sprečavanje ili zaustavljanje vašeg psa da piški u kući.
Neuter
Za pse kućne ljubimce, rana sterilizacija će prestati da obeležava ponašanje kod većine pasa. Kastracija u ranom uzrastu može sprečiti stvaranje navike.
Za starije pse sterilizacija može i dalje imati željeni efekat, ali obeležavanje u kući je možda postala navika koju ćete morati da prekinete. Isprobajte metod nadzora u nastavku.
U jednoj studiji je pronađeno sledeće. „Naše istraživanje pokazuje da ni starost u vreme sterilizacije niti trajanje problematičnog ponašanja nemaju uticaja na verovatnoću da će se ponašanje promeniti nakon sterilizacije, tako da ne treba misliti da zato što muški pas ima problema sa obeležavanjem urina ili agresivnim ponašanjem. već pet godina da je prekasno za razmatranje sterilizacije. „Centar za zdravlje kućnih životinja, UC Davis“
Čini se da testosteron igra ulogu u obeležavanju urina. Najmanje jedna studija je pokazala da će sterilizacija psa u bilo kom uzrastu pomoći da se to spreči. Ne može se garantovati da će sterilizacija psa magično izlečiti ovaj problem, ali ako ne sterilišete muškog psa, vaše šanse da prekinete naviku su znatno smanjene.
Naravno, sterilizacija nije uvek opcija jer možda želite da uzgajate svog psa.
Nadgledajte i razbijte naviku
MORATE ga uhvatiti na delu! PSI BRZO UČE OD OVOG
Neophodan je strogi nadzor. Morate biti posvećeni zaustavljanju markiranja vašeg psa i morate biti dosledni. Nekoliko nedelja ili često mnogo manje vremena intenzivnog nadzora i korekcije može vam uštedeti ceo život cepanja kose pokušavajući da pronađete brzo rešenje za problem. Neki ljudi su izjavili da je za to trebalo samo dan ili dva koristeći metod intenzivnog nadzora.
Ograničite svog psa na jedan deo kuće gde ga možete posmatrati. Zatvorite vrata drugih delova kuće ili ih zagradite kapijama za bebe ili improvizujte sa onim što vam je pri ruci.
Ako barikadiranje nije moguće, druga opcija je da svog psa stavite na povodac koji se može uvlačiti dok je u kući sa vama i da imate potpunu kontrolu u svakom trenutku.
Napravite sebi šejker bocu ili šejker konzervu
Šejker konzerva je jednostavno prazna limenka kole sa nekoliko novčića u njoj. Otvor je zalepljen da bi se sprečilo da novčići izlete. Pravi veliku buku kada ga protresete gore-dole.
Šejker boca je plastična boca sa malim kamenčićima ili novčićima postavljenim unutra.
Pazite na svog psa da li ima znakova (kao što je njuškanje i kruženje) koje čak razmišlja o obeležavanju. U trenutku kada počne da podiže nogu protresite konzervu samo da bi privukao njegovu pažnju. Glasna buka treba da ga uplaši i prekine ono što radi. Dok gleda ka tome odakle je nastala buka. Dajte mu komandu strogim glasom 'NE PIŠI'. Ponekad i bacanje konzerve u njegovom opštem pravcu takođe dobro funkcioniše, ali pazite da ga ne udarite njome jer samo želite da ga preplašite, a ne da mu naudite.
U redu, jednom ste ga zaustavili da piški. Sada morate da budete dosledni i marljivi i da nastavite sa promenom ponašanja svaki put kada ga vidite da pokušava da obeleži urin.
Ni u kom trenutku nemojte klevetati, buncati ili šamarati svog psa. Kazna će nesigurnog psa učiniti nesigurnijim.
Ova metoda nije namenjena za kućnu obuku vašeg šteneta, već samo za obeležavanje urina. Obuka noše je drugo pitanje. Možda biste želeli da pročitate ovaj članak: Kako da obučite svog psa ili štene na nošu
Pohvalite ga kada piški gde želite
Ne zaboravite da pohvalite psa kada ga označi na odgovarajućem mestu. Ako ste napolju, a on označi na drvetu ili drugom prihvatljivom objektu ili području, recite mu kako je dobar dečko. Reci mu: 'Pišaj ovde, dobri dečko' srećnim glasom. Psi brzo uče iz pozitivnih odgovora na njihovo ponašanje.
Poruka koju pokušavate da mu prenesete je da obeležavanje urina nije loše, ali da obeležavanje unutar kuće nije tako dobra ideja.
Kad izađeš
Psi koji pate od anksioznosti odvajanja mogu piškiti dok ste napolju. Ne pišaju iz inata jer si ih ostavio, psi jednostavno ne razmišljaju ovako. Osećaju se uznemireno što su ostavljeni sami. Pokušajte da im ostavite deo svoje nošene odeće sa vašim poznatim mirisima na njemu. Ovo bi moglo biti dovoljno da se smiri njihova anksioznost.
Zatvor je jedini odgovor za neke pse
Nekim psima se nikada neće moći poveriti vođenje kuće. Iako vam je nezgodno, možda ćete morati da zatvorite vrata određenih prostorija i dozvolite slobodu samo u sobama kojima se može verovati.
Nisam siguran da li išta od toga pomaže Lipsu.

den door! He showed me who was boss and i better not ever do that again to him! I think he truly suffers from little man syndrome.
