Riley's going to drive me nuts. He peed on my floor yesterday. Granted, he was left unattended on carpet (this is the only time that this happens). A friend of mine who is going to watch my pets while I'm out of town (this Friday through next Wednesday) came over with the key I gave him to get something he left there on Sunday. He took the dogs out of the kitchen where I baby-gate them during the day to prevent stuff like this. Anyway, I came home to pee on the carpet and the fluffy mess that used to be the innerds (sp?) of one of Sadie's bears (I think Riley de-fluffed him, as he did my pillows a couple of weeks ago).
This happens every now and then (the peeing). It's pretty rare, b/c I am careful to put them in the kitchen. He *can* hold it. He holds it all night. He doesn't pee in the bedroom (anymore, he did a couple of times) and waits until I get up or until he can't hold it anymore and then he barks.
But why? He's almost a year old (tomorrow is his bday). What the heck? There isn't a medical reason for this. He does it at random. Sometimes, if I go somewhere for just an hour or two, I'll leave them out in the living room, and he's fine. What gives??? At least I'm moving soon, and hopefully I won't have carpet or will get rid of it asap if I do.
