Just think how boring our lives would be if our dogs didn't have problems!  Cindyloo when we gother was not toilet trained to well the breeder admitted that she did allow her dogs to go in the house so we had an uphill struggle but now accidents in the house although they still occur are not anywhere near as often but one place she use to pee was on the spare bed in the backroom so we got rid of it now however my OH back is bad so we got a bed with a hard mattress in the back room and he sleeps in there I like my soft cuddly mattress to much to join him.  When I went into change the sheets it would seem Cindyloo has been up to her old tricks and weed on the mattress ( she also pooed on the old mattress but hasn't on this one).  Any idea how to stop her ? or why she does it?  this is the only room in the house where the door won't shut but the main bedroom door is never shut and she doesn't do that on my bed.

Not sure why she is doing it but have you thought about a child gate ? :)

Now there is an idea better than waiting for OH to fix the door thanks

My boy took to weeing on my bed!!!! 

He then stopped for me, but as soon as OH was back from working away, Douggie wee'd right on him when OH got in bed!  We only let them up for a cuddle and they choose to go into their crate when they are ready, so I don't think they think its their bed.  Anyhoo... I think it is marking behaviour.

I think the only way it can stop is to keep them away from that area until they grow out of it.

Cindyloo may be marking the bed as she wants it as her territory?  Being that my dogs don't mark around me (coz i am boss), they try to get one up on the OH, so he is marking to get a higher status than him?

I don't know though, its just a guess and douggie is a boy so??

Dogs can be very wierd, but we still love 'em!

OMG can just imagine what would happen if Cindy weed on OH it's me or the dog wouldn't come into it.  It would make for interesting divorce hearing I think lol.  In my mums divorce my Dad stated that one of the reasons he left was because my sisters rabbit kept pooing in the corner behind his arm chair and he couldn't put up with that (the other woman really had nothing to do with it).
Will I ever know what is going on in Cindys head?

We will never know such things!!

OH was remarkably good about it.  Especially as I had just persuaded him that cuddles at night on the bed wouldn't really hurt.  Then Douggie goes and wees on his feet (well on the duvet!).  He didn't blame Douggie, he blamed me! :rolleyes:

All I had to say was "well they don't pee on me do they!"

There seems to be something particularly fascinating about spare beds! I say this because Nips (who was thoroughly and easily housetrained) occasionally transgresses under very specific circumstances. None of which have anything to do with "status" I hasten to add because even if I believed in dominance theory, everyone in this house long ago accepted that there was only one alpha bitch! ;)

He has to be watched when returning home from overnight (or longer) visits when his first act on getting home has occasionally been to charge upstairs, leap onto the spare bed and widdle right in the centre of it. Despite being an entire male, we've never had "marking" inside the house and this particular behaviour seems to be a way of settling himself back at home. I've learnt to keep the spare room door firmly shut for the first half hour or so of him coming home since the urge only comes on in the first few minutes!

There's also the possibility that Cindyloo has taken a look at the weather outside and decided she'd rather sneak off for a nice warm wee in the comfort of your spare room!

The weather does seem to be a factor in her peeing indoors but the spare room seems to be pee friendly rain wind or shine glad I am not the only one though
