Adult diapers and a cone.
It's her way of calling you a lib.
Donβt get mad, get even; pee on her doggy bed, see how SHE likes it, that oughtta show her /s
I have two dogs (a big one and a little one) and some training from a dog trainer. There's no "getting even" with dogs. If you pee on their bed, they won't care. They'll smell it, and because their sense of smell is drastically more evolved than ours, they'll figure out what you ate a couple of meals ago and what you're current mood is. They will not interpret your pee as an act of vengeance.
There's no punishment you can give. Instead, you need to hack dogs' psychology (which is easy, actually) and train them to pee outdoors only. The way you do this is to by POSITIVE motivation. Each time they pee outdoors, give them a treat. You have about ~2 seconds to give them that treat though, so keep treats in your pocket at all times. Treats you know they like.
What will happen is that they'll pee exactly where you want them to pee to get the treat. It takes multiple times, but they'll make the connection. They just want the treat. Only after they've made the appropriate connection between peeing where you want and getting a reward can you begin then to not always give them the treat. Instead, affirm with a simple "good boy" and maybe a pet. Slowly (over weeks) retreat the reward until you're just giving a verbal "good boy". And maybe not even every time.
What they will do is just pee outside because "that's the way they always do it". That's it. That's all their brains will tell them. And they might bark or ask to go outside even when they need to go because, in their heads, it's "weird" to go inside. It's not what they did the last 20 times so they don't want to.
Anyway. Take it from a random person on the Internet: punishment won't be effective. Just hack your dog's love of food and love of routine. Keep it positive and you'll, eventually, receive the fruits of your labor.
I'm pretty sure the person you responded to was joking.
/s actually stands for "serious" /s
new emoji just dropped
Btw are the custom emojis broken now or it's only me? They only show as "undefined".
They work when you colon autocomplete them, but selecting them from the picker seems broken.
Oh indeed, thanks
the official ones work for me, Hexbear's emotes have disappeared a few times when the server went down
I know. I should've just made it its own top-level comment probably. Too late, tho.
It's not a big deal. It's helpful advice regardless.
I was told some dogs piss self from excitement when they're small. Anyhow, I'd piss your bed too if I climbed into it. Don't blame comrade pupper.
what if you deserved it did you think about that
Probably an excitement wee. You've got to take her outside quick every time you see her and she'll get better. Good looking dog!
"She pisses herself every time she sees me. Wat do?" (S)he looks pretty young, and young dogs cannot control their bladder as well and for as long as adult dogs. Even adult dogs can wee a little when they get very excited, at least mine has done it before. If there is any sort of routine around these little accidents, take her for an extra pee break around that time, maybe it'll help. If it happens way too often, it might be worth discussing with a vet. She's adorable, by the way!
First off, don't make a fuss when you get home, just go straight outside with the dog to the normal place she can pee. Then make a big fuss when she pees outside. That dog looks about 6 months old, dogs can go about their age in months -1 hours between needing to pee, so not more than 5~ hours. Make sure she is getting outside more often than that. Make sure she goes out when you get up and go to bed, and also any time she wakes up from a sleep and after she eats. It gets easier as they get older, and they are very worth the companionship if you treat them well.
