How Can I Get My Dog to Stop Dribbling Pee?

Odds are, you and your dog have a special bond and a loving relationship. While this is an appropriate and healthy relationship to have with your dog, it can cause some issues. Because your dog loves you so much, there is bound to be some over-excitement at times upon seeing you. With over-excitement comes dribbling pee. There are some simple training methods that you can use to get your dog to stop this habit.

Instructions

Come home calmly. Your dog might dribble pee when you come home because such strong emotions are held. When you get excited, your dog will get excited, too. This makes dribbling more likely.

Ignore your dog when you come home if being calm is not enough. Go about your routine ignoring your dog. Once your dog is calm, then you can give a quiet pat on the head.

Praise your dog once it is calm. However, you still need to remain calm yourself. A treat and a quiet "good boy" works well. This positive reinforcement will help your dog learn that being calm is behavior that you want.

Avoid using punishment or negative reinforcement to correct a dog dribbling pee. Your dog may not even be aware of this occurrence, and punishment is not effective with dog training. In fact, it can create more serious and difficult behavioral issues with your dog.

Schedule an appointment with your dog's veterinarian if the problem continues. The cause of the problem could be urinary incontinence, which is often seen in older dogs, sprayed and neutered dogs, and female dogs. Urinary incontinence can be treated with medication.

Follow the specific plan for giving your dog the proper medication, which is usually once a day for a short while, and may continue for a matter of weeks, or even a lifetime, depending on the age of the dog and the severity of the condition.
