Hi All!
My name is Dani and my husband and I have a chocolate tricolored English bulldog named Reece. We got him at 9weeks old and he just turned 1 in April. This is our first English bulldog and we have a 4yr old Frenchie and a 9year old Doberman (all neutered). They are the best of buds!! we are having a few issues with Reece that weāve never encountered with our other dogs, and I would love any and all advice. He pees where he sleeps, when he was a puppy we dealt with it, put him on a timer for potty breaks, trained him to go out the dog door and so on. While he hasnāt had an accident in the house since he was 9 months old we are having an issue with him peeing in his bed. I will let him out at night and 20 mins later when I put down a fresh bed for him he will pee on it. I went to the store and bought all new dogs beds 2 days ago- him and the frenchie were both laying in it and enjoying themselves when the frenchie got up and Reece just peed and stood up and walked away. I was watching a movie and paused it to use the restroom, when I came out Reece was up on the couch laying on the opposite end and peed on the other end. My last statement, Instead of beds I use bath mats for him to lay on now because of this issue and of course, I felt bad and gave him a nice soft blanket, I layed it down and he walked over to it, peed and then went and sat down on the other side of it. Can someone tell me whatās going on?! Nothing has changed, like I said heās been doing this since he was a pup- even puppy training was difficult-Iāve never had a dog who would pee and lay in it? Itās hard because I love him but itās mentally draining- im thinking that itās just him being a bully and trying to show me heās boss? I would consider an infection but he doesnāt do this anywhere else except on his beds I buy him and the couch that one time he jumped up. Please help!!!
