bk_blue Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Is your boy neutered? If he isn't, neutering takes away a lot of the need for the male to mark his territory. There was a recent post on the ACD-L where a male Heeler was marking on the widescreen TV. :lol: Someone suggested strapping a sanitary pad to his pizzle so when he pees, it will be all yucky and wet and he won't do it again. Dunno if this would work though, there are probably better ways to solve the problem but the heat is frying my brain... Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 No he has not been done because i plan to breed him with my bitch. Quote
gooeydog Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Three months ago, you didn't even know that your bitch was a bitch... now you want to breed her with a male you just bought? And most unaltered males dog do mark. It will likely get even worse after he's been bred. Also, in your post you said he's been doing it for 3 months, how is that possible when he's only 3 months right now? There are some SBT owners/breeders on this board: http://pub89.ezboard.com/fdogcommunityfrm1, if you want more advise than what you get here. Quote

Guest Anonymous Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 tom napisał(a):the boy is 3 and the girl is 5 months. I'm I right in thinking that the boy is 3 years old? if so and the girl is 5 months, I'm thinking that since he's been marking inside the house for the past 3 months then he's like this because of her coming into the home, therefore he's territory marking. Best thing is to have him neutered. I don't think breeding him with her or any other dog is a good idea, leave that for the pros. Your bitch should not be breed before she's 3 years old for her health. If you decide to stud him you could be opening a big can of worms where he will change in temperment and want everything in sight and do anything to get it. You could be setting yourself up for an unhappy home! Quote

You could be setting yourself up for an unhappy home! I think you're right... I misread his first post. Either way, he doesn't need to breed the bitch, since after all, if her breeder couldn't tell him whether she was female, the breeder definitely isn't someone who will bother to tell him about the health problems in the pup's lines. And if he thinks his male marking the house is hard to deal with, wait until his bitch goes into heat and he has to keep them seperate for a month. Not to mention cleaning up all the blood from the floors :o Quote
Guest roo Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Tom, If i am to remember correctly :lol: did you not get your pup from a rescue or something similar, some of the posts were deleted as we had the same subject everywhere :lol: I can remember saying Surely the rescue would know what sex the puppy was. please tom dont even consider breeding her. Just love her for what she is. Roo Quote
Poofy Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 You think he is bad now!!! HOlly gcrap..when you bred him he is going to be 100 times worse...and you will be lucky if your female doesn't adopt the SAME BEHAVIOR. When this behavior is set in , especially after they are bred, fixing them does NOTHING to stop it.. You will wind up having to either get rid of the dogs or have them live out doors...and no one wants a dogs that pees and deficates all over the house...I bet your thinking, he doesn't poop in the house...well.....You just WAIT>...woooohooo nothing like good old stud dog poo on your pillow when you get ready to go to bed...or bitch urin on your nice clean laundry.... HA! Quote

wildbunch Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 I seem to smell something in the air :wink: Anyways, Tom if you're serious you need to do some thinking before you jump into this. You are making a big mistake if you decide to breed these two. Listen to the people on this forum you are not a breeder and we certainly don't need more puppies. Please heed our advice and avoid breeding, spay and neuter your animals and give them a chance to be pets. Quote
wildbunch Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 I'm so lost, K what happened with the vaporub? Quote
mouseatthebusstop Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 I agree with all the other posts Is the puppy also weeing in the house that will make him wee on top of it :o :o :o Quote
wildbunch Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 LOL. I did something similar once with IcyHot. Not fun and so, so hard to get the smell out of your clothes. I feel for you K. :lol: Quote
courtnek Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 I;m afraid I have to agree with everyone else. Most professional breeders (the good ones at least) kepp their animals in a house-like kennel, not in their own houses, for just this reason. When you introduced the female, that started the male territory-marking. And unless he is neutered, he will continue to mark. Do you have any training in breeding? It's not as simple as letting them mate and you get puppies....there are health issues, birth issues.... what if one of the puppies is breach? Does anyone there know how to handle a breach-birth? What will you do if the mother decides to not nurse? How will you handle a stillborn that wont come out? There are many issues and potential problems involved in breeding. It requires training and experience..... And as was said before - you cant breed her until at least 3 years old - and he will mark every minute of those three years. You might want to put some serious consideration into this decison.... Quote
Poofy Posted January 25, 2003 Posted January 25, 2003 Oh yes, cat wee...My main coon has a nasty habbit of peeing behind the bed in the back room...its the only place he will pee...so as long as you keep the door closed you are ok...but if you don...SHEW!!!! Hours of carpet cleaning later...you think you have it all...until you go out for fresh air and come back in...sheesh... Lets just say i do a pretty darn good job of remembering to keep that door closed!!!!! :wink: Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted January 26, 2003 Posted January 26, 2003 Heavens!! I've just re read my post and its almost saying that breeding the bitch later would be ok...................No! no no not my intention at all! Jings! that's another whole ball game there, daft idea if you don't know what your doing, you could potentially lose her! Tom, can you imagine your bitch coming into season several times a year which will drive your dog mad!!! and I mean mad enough to do anything to get to her, how would you keep them apart, even if he can't get to her he will let the world know that he want's her and could become aggressive towards you and yours. Then what happens if you do have an accident and the bitch falls far too young, the idea of pups having pups ............................... Nope not a good idea at all! I have a dog and bitch (Dalmatians) and both are spayed and neutered, to me it's better safe than sorry! I'm not a professional and would never take the risk of harming my pets through ignorance. The amount of people who just assumed that I was going to breed just because I had one of each sex was terrible. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted January 27, 2003 Posted January 27, 2003 And you call me a bad breeder ! Tom did not even know if his dog was a male or female :o and he does not even know about normal unneutered doggy behaviours. LOL you people make me laugh! Quote
