Riley is becoming a man dog...
« on: October 19, 2006, 05:02:51 am »
I think Riley is finally trying to mark things and actually pee while standing on three legs. I thought he'd never get to that, which didn't bother me at all.

Twice yesterday, I turned around to see him off-balance while peeing (though on all fours). He's usually beside me or just behind me when we walk, so I missed the attempts to put his leg up. Once, there was pee a good foot up on a stack of tires he was beside (the guys at the tire business were probably less than thrilled, and I apologized). I figure he had to be on three legs to get it up there.

So I haven't *seen* him in action yet, but it seems that Riley, at almost 16 months old, has decided it is time to pee like a big boy dog... all over whatever he can get to.

hehehe Riley...good for you.  Now our Barkley just decided early on in life that that three leg thing was way too much work.  He'd do it once in a blue moon but usually he was mistaken for a girl dawg hehehe

I am so proud of him. It took Simon forever to learn that he should hike his leg to pee.But when he finally did it was so great. We were so proud of him. All of the kids came running to see.

Yay for Riley! Goliath is not doing that yet, but I noticed that wherever Jasmine pees, he will run over and pee there too. haha...so he's already marking I think.

Heehee, he's a man's man now.

Brutus never learned to hike his leg, which I'm actually glad.  He's so clumsy, there is no telling what he'd pee on if he did hike  :o
