Dog Peeing Inside?

Flag

I have a 7 year old Yorkie that has been peeing on the floor, chairs, couch, if something is set down on the floor, he will pee on it. He has been doing this for awhile now. We even put up a child's gate to keep him from the family room. We think he knows better, because we don't see him do it anymore, but my house is starting to stink badly! The other day I went to recline my chair and I felt this kinda wet, sticky substance on the chair, so he is lifting his leg sometime that we aren't seeing him do.

Why would he be doing this and what can I do about it, and also how do I get that smell out of my house? My husband said he's gonna have to go if we can't get this figured out. He's my baby, I can't do that! I really need help and quick before my husband does! PS he has not been neutered.

Hello,
First of all get him neutered. He will stop this behavior after he is neutered and you must train him to potty where you want him too.

You do have a challenge there. A 7 year old dog that has not been neutered may be harder to change than a younger dog. But you do need to start with neutering. Look at some of the training methods on this site for a little retraining. As far as getting rid of the smell, the enzyme soaks from the pet store or online do very well.

I also like Fizzion. I have a small pet size carpet cleaner that I use. I still use it a few times a month, but at least we no longer have a smell problem. Good luck.
