Dog advice
Just wondering if anyone has any advice on a dog issue me and the wife are having. I have a Jack Russel Terrier and he has just about lost his home. I have had him since he was a puppy but either he changes his behavior very quickly or I have to get rid of him.

The last 2 to 3 years he has started lifting his leg on things in the house (it has just gotten worse lately). This isn't because he isn't getting the opportunity to go outside, this is a behavior issue. He knows he isn't supposed to be doing it and he never does it in front of us. Today was the first time I had come close to catching him, I turned around for a few seconds and when I turned back around he had pissed on our couch. Needless to say he didn't have a good morning. This tends to happen a lot more in the winter months, probably because he can't get outside as much to play.

We got him from a rescue and the lady who runs it had us try a belly band(I was not real keen on the idea and still am not), she said she uses them on all her rescued Jack Russels because they tend to have this issue a lot. I wish they would have told me that in the first place. It works for the most part but he continually pees in it when you have it on him so it just creates more issues. I think his little wee wee gets hot or something.

I have had him for 7 years and really would hate to get rid of him but if I don't figure something out really fast the wife has told me it is either him or me. Anyone got any advice other then aids trees and antifreeze?

When I first got my dog. Whenever she pee'd in the house, I put her in a dog crate for a while.

She learned pretty quick, although it did take about a month, and I cant remember the last time she had an accident.

Hitting the dog, scaring isn't going to help. With my dog, the crate worked perfectly. She hated that thing and I would strongly recommend trying that.

But since you've had the dog a long time and just all of the sudden he's doing this. That tells me something else might be wrong.

Finally, exercise is pretty critical. A tired dog is always a good dog.
Yeah, he is fixed and crate trained. If you saw him you would know he gets lots of excercise. He is pretty ripped. I run him pretty ragged I just can't do it 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

I don't really rub her face in it btw. I just put her nose right up to it and hold it there for a few seconds. I was really hoping for a troll opportunity and it never materialized.

I'm sure you've taken her to the vet for a checkup if it's gone on this long; could be something as simple as a UTI.

And there is always the doggie anti-depressive route. If she's neurotic after play, it could be a straight up chemical imbalance (not impossible; JRTs are nuts anyway).

Oh go **** yourself dipshit. Yes, someone looking for advice is an irresponsible pet owner. Could you be any ****ing dumber?

I realize you're a pretty sedentary guy, but I assure you it can be done.

Yeah, Jack Russells are one big ball of energy. If I am not running him or throwing a ball or playing tug of war he is sitting in front of me with his back leg shaking because he is about ready to jump out of his skin. Everyone else sees him and gets a kick out of it but I am always telling them they have no idea how exhausting he can be.
