365. Excitation urination - Jack Russell female puppy.

Toilet Training Your First Puppy in Singapore

"Drinks a lot," the owner said. I was wondering how this puppy pees more than 5 times at my surgery. On the floor, when the workman came into my surgery to measure the table for my new autoclave, on my consultation table, on the chair when I took her picture.

Jack Russell, female, around 10 weeks old. An older 3-year-old male Silkie Terrier was paper trained at a corner. The young puppy would sometimes pee in the same location but would pee anywhere, especially behind the main door.

"Vingear:water at 1:1 was ineffective, especially behind the main door," the man said.

"Are you from the army?" I asked the gentleman with silvery hair. "Your voice might have frightened her." He was in the army. "Not only does she pee when she greeted me, but also anybody."




"That would be excitation urination, not submissive urination," I said. "Is she socialised to meet people outside the house? Like going outdoors daily?"

"No," the man said. "She barks at other dogs and pees too".

How to resolve this probem of excitation urination? Is there a solution?



P.S.

I recommended the next stage - remove the playpen and let the puppy access the pee pan easily to eliminate. Maybe to cut a piece of the vertical wall out at 5-inch length so that the puppy needed not hop into the pan.

The owner was an engineer and knew how to cut a 5-inch gap in the Aluminium pee pan so that the puppy needed not be carried into the pee pay but just walked in. The pieces needed to be rolled inwards. He would send me a picture when the pee pan was cut. That would be good.
