Well, there are several reasons. Therefore, the solutions are also diverse. That way, check out the items that follow how to deal with it!

Review the layout of the location for needs in your home

First, it is imperative that you review your home. Or else changes that have occurred recently. For example, have you moved house? Is the dog bathroom still in the same place?

After all, this may just be a reaction to changes in routine. So, check the following questions:

  • Is the dog's bath (sanitary diaper or other type) in an accessible location? Are there obstacles?
  • Has there been a recent change in the location of needs?
  • Does your dog have any mobility restrictions that prevent him from getting to the bathroom?

All this is essential. Also, review your travel customs. Many tutors get their dogs used to doing the needs during daily walks. When you don't give them this attention, they may become confused or unable to hold urine or stool.

go to the vet

If no change has taken place or there is no obstacle, you need to continue investigating. And for that, resorting to a vet is crucial. He is the one who will be able to examine your pet and analyze any physical condition.

For example, diseases of the reproductive organs. Or else kidney or urinary issues. Thus, examining it is essential.

It also helps you to stay calm. So be sure to go to the vet. Even if the behavior doesn't stem from an illness, it can help you find causes and solutions. 

Use pheromones for dogs

A great solution for a dog peeing out of place is the use of pheromones. That's the name given to the odors that dogs release. They have them in their saliva, hair and urine. And they serve to give signals that they sense olfactory.

Like felines, dogs also use pheromones as signals. And those present in the urine generally serve to delimit safe places. Equally, for places that belong to them. After all, they also have an instinct to delimit territories, especially with the arrival of new pets.

And these smells are replicable by synthetics! The odor exhaled by pheromones allows them to smell the scent, and understand that such a place is the right one. Or else that it's safe.

In this way, they dispense urine in these places. So by using synthetic pheromones on furniture and homes, you can get your dog to pee in the right place.
