Dogs urinate when they get excited, which is medically known as “excited urinary incontinence”. This phenomenon has multiple physiological and psychological factors behind it, but with proper guidance and training, this problem can mostly be improved.
Immature physiological development
The urinary system and nerves that control urination in puppies are not fully developed, just like children who cannot fully control their own urination and defecation, their ability to control urination is weak. As puppies grow up and their physical functions continue to improve, this situation usually subsides.
Compliant urination
Dogs are animals with a sense of hierarchy, and when facing individuals of higher status (such as their owners) or entering unfamiliar and oppressive environments, they may express their obedience and submission through urination, which is an instinctive behavior.
Excessive emotional excitement
Some dogs have a sensitive and timid personality. When they encounter situations that make them extremely excited or nervous, such as seeing their owner after a long separation or suddenly hearing loud noises, their adrenaline will rapidly secrete, causing an increase in bladder pressure and triggering a urinary response. This situation is more common in some small dogs, such as Chihuahuas and Pomeranians.
Improvement methods
Avoid excessive stimulation
For dogs that are prone to excitement during urination, owners should be careful to avoid sudden and intense stimulation. Fun apere, when you go home, don’t immediately hug or call out to your dog warmly. Instead, stay calm and wait for your dog’s emotions to stabilize before interacting.
Positive reinforcement training
Use the dog’s favorite snacks, toys, patako ati bẹbẹ. as rewards for basic obedience training. Start with simple “sit down” ati “wait” commands, and reward your dog promptly when they are able to complete these commands in a calm state.
Regular urination habits
It is crucial to help dogs develop regular urination habits. Take your dog for a regular walk and bowel movement every day, usually after waking up in the morning, half an hour after meals, and before going to bed. Every time you wait for your dog to urinate in a fixed place, give praise and rewards when it successfully completes it.
Building Confidence
For dogs that urinate due to timidity and obedience, owners should help them build confidence through daily interaction and training. Take your dog to interact with different people and environments, starting from familiar and safe places such as community gardens, and gradually expanding the range of activities.
If a dog’s agitated urination problem persists and does not improve with age, and even shows abnormal symptoms such as difficulty urinating, frequent urination, and hematuria, it is likely caused by urinary system diseases. It is recommended to take it to a pet hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner.
