Is your new puppy or adult adopted dog having a problem with uncontrollable peeing during play, while excited or when it’s scared? Well, this is not uncommon in puppies or adult dogs that have been abused. Submissive or excited peeing is easy to cure but you have to be consistent.

If your dog is experiencing this disorder that causes unnecessary peeing, then he might suffer from submissive/excitement issues. After a clean bill of health from the vet that there are no other medical problems that might cause this problem, then we can move on to the submissive/excitement peeing issue. Here are some things that you can try with your dog.

As you stand over you dog in a dominant position or face her looking into her eyes and there is not an issue with peeing then, we know your dog suffers from an excitement issue. If your dog pee’s when in trouble or scared or you are being dominant over her, then it’s a submissive issue. Both of these problems are dealt with in a calm and reassuring manner.

First of all, never yell at your submissive dog because it leads to insecure behavior. Train your dog to roll over, shake or sit up and reward her with praise and a treat. Submissive dogs need more kit gloves, no yelling, get to their level when engaging and as always pet them by scratching under the chin; never on top of their head.

Accidents are going to occur so it best to remember that you cannot scold during the training. Just clean it up and continue on with the positive praise when the puppy or dog does go in the correct spot. As with children, dogs and puppies respond better to positive praise over negative discipline.

Having a puppy that pee’s from excitement during their first year is not uncommon. Adult dogs will get excited too when you arrive home from work or have guests, but just don’t react to the accident. Keep a calm tone, clean the mess and remember to make a big deal when they do go in the right place.

Many dogs can have this excitement peeing while playing. It’s always best to do the playing out in the yard where it won’t matter. Making sure that you are not encouraging rowdy behavior indoors can help you to keep the uncontrollable peeing in check.

When you arrive home, we recommend that you keep your greeting to a minimum. High pitched voices and rowdy behavior can trigger peeing so keep it to a minimum. We do suggest no immediate greeting when you get home as to not encourage the high energy behavior

Don’t feel you are mistreating the dog, remember they are not humans. This can work to cure the excited peeing dog. Calm hello greetings when the dog is not excited, affirms the calm behavior, whereas the greeting when the dog is excited encourages the excited behavior, which makes perfect sense.
