Even after training, it is likely that your dog will occasionally "spot mark" or urinate in certain places. The reason for spot marking can be just plain instinct or just plain insolence. My friend has a little beagle puppy that is pretty well housebroken but sometimes, out of pure spite, he will urinate under the coffee table or on the welcome mat.

If you find yourself moving into a new home or apartment, your dog might even “forget” where he is supposed to take care of his natural needs. On the related website, they teach dog owners about housebreaking issues; what causes them, and how to solve them. Dog owners need to understand that this is normal behavior for some dogs. While they can and will spot mark to spite you, they also do it simply because they have to mark their territory.

When you first move into a house you have to make it your own. You have to make it home. You do this by decorating a certain way or changing the color of the walls. Well, dogs do the same thing by urinating along the perimeter of their home. It is plain instinct. Patience, consistent directions and praise for your dog goes a long way toward resolving the issue.

While spot marking can be a form of dog aggression, it can also be inevitable "doggy behavior". If he or she does not stop after a day or two, you’ll have to try and take care of a possible aggression problem, but if you get angry from the beginning, you might end up creating an even bigger problem. Learning how to properly train you dog is fully explored in the 186 page eBook of doggie know-how to help owners of all breeds deal with aggressions in many different forms.

Nearly every dog loves to play with toys. These toys can be anything from the sticks found in your backyard – to your favorite shoe. Keeping a dog amused for any length of time depends on the personality and activity level of a specific dog, but some toys are more effective than others.

Some dogs like squeaky toys. Others can’t stand them. These types of toys usually have a squeaker hidden inside that makes a noise when the dog chews or carries the toy around. In many cases, a dog has one of two options with this kind of toy; either they’ll try to annihilate it or they will treat it with tender loving care.

Many dogs also liked stuffed animals. Of course, dog owners should take care to remove the glass marbles that serve as eyes and other attachments that may cause a dog to choke. Dog owners should ask about the type of stuffing that is used for such stuffed toys, to avoid Styrofoam beads or stuffing that may cause swallowing or choking hazards.

The link to the e-book below, which covers all types of topics – from dog toys to diet and nutrition to housebreaking and disobedience, offers suggestions and tips on buying toys for your dog.

Whether you’re buying squeaky or other types of chew toys, safety of your dog should be uppermost in your mind. Understanding your dog’s personality and behaviors before you purchase such toys will go a long way toward finding the toys that will keep your dog entertained, challenged and engaged in positive behaviors and activities.

Dog ownership means providing a safe, healthy, and fun environment for your dog, no matter what breed, gender, or size.
