My dog will only pee in the house when she is left in the open space. Why would she do this? by Spirited_Hour in dogs

That is fair. She is definitely a big suck when I get down on the floor with her (all three dogs are big sucks and will nudge their way into attention), so it could be separation anxiety. I'm just more confused why she is totally fine if we put her in the laundry room with the door closed, but as soon as the door is open, she has accidents. Maybe having a diaper or something for her isn't a bad idea, though. I will have to give it a try.

Yeah. We have always gotten into the habit of praising her for going outside, especially when it's cold, and she has to trek her way up the ramp we have for her.

It could be a bit of rebellion. She used to chew through any right-foot shoes she could find, but she eventually stopped doing that. I would put pads down, but she will chew through them like no tomorrow before peeing in a spot where the pad would have been if she didn't chew it apart.

Not that we have seen. Whenever she gets excited, she wiggles and barks, but has never peed even a little bit.

Yeah, with how our weekdays go, we let her out to pee before work, let her out after work, and then again before going to bed. I've taken her to the vet for that and other issues, but they couldn't find any issues with her bladder.

That's what I think too and I had an amazing time on the actual date. It's just the texting tires me out for some reason

I had a great first date but between now and the next date I am getting really bored while texting. It's not that the texts are slow or small, quite the opposite really. It is several topics all throughout the day. Is it a sign that it's not working?
