My mom's dog was house-broken when he came here and was good about barking to go out. Poppy uses a bell so he picked that up instead of barking, I liked the barking better because I could hear it all over the house, the bell I have to be in a room close to. He would also come jump up in my lap if I was sitting down, look deep into my eyes and take off for the door to ring the bell. For the last couple of weeks he still asks to go out the same as always but he has been coming in and peeing on everything close to the ground. I had a pair of pants hanging on the clothes rack to dry and he even sprinkled it so that I had to treat them with enzymes and wash them again. He also comes in and poops in one of the hallways or in Mama's bathroom floor. He has been here since September and has been so good so I am wondering if males do this when they are sick! Do any of you have any other ideas? Have we traumatized him? I haven't had a dog since I was 2 years old and don't remember him.
