He is about 1 1/2 years old. He has been house trained for quite a while. About 2 months ago, he decided he was going to start peeing and pooping on the basement floor. We started locking him out of the basement and the behavior seemed to stop. About a week later, he started peeing upstairs in the bathroom. He will come in the house and 15 minutes to a half hour later, he pees on the bathroom doorway or the toilet. The problem behavior seemed to go away on its own. My boyfriend scrubbed the bathroom and the toilet with baking soda and then with murphy’s oil soap to get rid of the smell. There hasn’t been a problem for about 2 1/2 weeks. Today I heard him peeing upstairs. I closed my laptop and stood up to go up and yell at him but before I could even get part way up the stairs, before I yelled, he came running down and hid under the table. He knows what he did was wrong. Short of getting rid of him, I don’t know how to make him behave. Why is he doing this?
there haven’t been any changes in the house. no new pets or visiting pets. no roommate changes recently. so i don’t see stress as a factor. he usually doesn’t do it when we are not home. the dogs were alone for about 18 hours last weekend because our friend forgot to let them out – but there were no messes.

Male dogs mark with urine…and that has nothing to do with him being housebroken or not. At 1 1/2 the dog is still learning, and will make mistakes. Some dogs learn quicker than others, at various ages.

If other dogs are coming into your home, or the scent of other dogs that can drive him to mark.

Make certain that you are available to him if he needs to go to the bathroom in the correct place, and that you are paying attention to the signs that he is letting you know he has to go. Dogs are like humans, they can only hold it for so long.

Also check with your vet that he isn’t having any urinary problems.

If he’s hiding under the table, he’s becoming too submissive. Do not yell at him to correct him, take him and lead him to the area he peed, make him smell it, then lead him to the correct place and rienforce the command word you use. Then praise him and give him a treat reward when he goes in the right place.

He has not relieved himself in the house in the longest time, and always lets me know when he needs to go out. These past couple days he has done his business indoors. Anyone have any ideas why the sudden change?

Dogs are creatures of habits. Check to see if you changed his habits. It is possible that he can’t go outside to do his business. Keep a fixed schedule of his feedings and walk him outside. It is possible that he could also be sick, check your vet to be sure. Re-train him if all else fail.

He’s a mini daschund.

Up until around 3 weeks ago, we’ve lived in an apartment, or a townhouse, with no back yard. So, when we trained him as a puppy, we trained him to go on pee-pee pads, instead of training him to pee outside. Which worked out well.

He caught on quick, and only peed and pooped on his pad. Even on walks he would hold it til he got back to his pad. But, as soon as we moved into this new place he started peeing and pooping on the floors.

I know he needs time to get used to the new place, but it’s been like 3 weeks and he hasn’t made much progress. I’ve gone back to the pad training basics… but nothing has changed.

Another difference is that this place has all hardwood floors. You can tell that he doesn’t like it much, since has always had a carpeted home.

Example: He won’t lay on the flooring or do his tricks on the hard floor. The only place he will lay now is on furniture or area rugs.

Any suggestions

That is very funny to read, because I am going through the same thing. I too lived in an apartment and trained my (now) 1 year old pug mix to go on the pads. I moved 3 weeks ago to a house, and he did excellent mastering the doggie door, and going outside to go potty. 3 days ago, he pees on my bed, and then it was downhill from here. Aside from setting an appointment to get him neutered, I really don’t know what else to do. Now that he is older, he has been growling at me when he pees in the house, when I even look at him! Hopefully getting him neutered will help a bit. Maybe try a couple of rugs, hopefully ones that aren’t that valuable, and praise him like crazy when he goes outside. Start moving the pad closer to the door and eventually outside if he can’t seem to break him of his habitual pad habits..Hope it helps! And good luck!

Crate training is an excellent way to keep your carpet poop free. Buy a crate (I prefer wire crates) make sure it is large enough for the dog to stand up and turn around in. Simply put the dog in the crate at night. The first few days to weeks the dog may cry and bark a lot, it is VERY important that you do not let the dog out when he’s doing this. It will teach him that if he barks/crys long enough, you will give in and let him out. Ignore him. I find putting the crate in the bathroom with the bath fan on helps. The white noise of the fan helps them fall asleep faster.

He is not under any particular stress or changes. He is not sick and he already goes outside multiple times a day. Even if he wants to go out in between he used to signal that he needed to got outside. The even odder thing is that he only pees and poops in strategic places like right in the doorway when you walk in the house or bathroom so you will step in it. Has anyone had this problem before and do you know what causes it?

It could be a health related issue, such as a urinary tract infection, bladder infection, worms, etc. So many possible things. I would highly suggest you take your dog in to see a vet.

Also, if the dog is getting old, it could be age related.

However, when I leave I have been putting down new paper. Is this teaching him to tinkle and poop inside?

Yes it is. If you allow the dog to pee and poo inside, of course it is teaching him to go inside.

Use a crate to confine him when you cannot watch him, and get a neighbor or dog walker to help you out mid day if you cannot let him out.
