There are likely explanation regarding why she\u2019d do this as described below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also consider that the dog may just need to pee if she hasn\u2019t had a needed potty break. Then, just make sure that someone takes him out to potty at appropriate intervals throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Does My Dog Pee When I Get Home?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Your Dog May Have Submissive Urination<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to determine whether it\u2019s submissive urination when your dog pees when you get home, there are some factors to consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Submissive urination is normal in some young dogs. Also look at your dog\u2019s temperament and body language to help determine whether that\u2019s the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It occurs when a dog is excited, shy, anxious, or scared. It can also occur to acknowledge your or another\u2019s dominance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Both male and female dogs may have submissive urination. <\/em><\/strong>Either sex can submissive urinate, depending on the factors below, but it occurs more often in female dogs.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Look at your dog\u2019s body language. <\/em><\/strong>A submissive dog shows submissive body language.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>He may tuck his tail under his body, crouch, have ears pulled back, look away, and drool. He may even roll on his back, exposing his belly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Submissive dogs may be shy, anxious, stressed, timid dogs. <\/em><\/strong>Generally, outgoing, in-your-face-type dogs like goldens or labs aren\u2019t submissive dogs.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>But, depending on their genetics and life experiences, any dog can be a submissive dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>A dog\u2019s experiences may cause him to be submissive. <\/em><\/strong>If a dog\u2019s been exposed to harsh or loud corrections or rough treatment, he may become submissive to people&#8211;especially to those who subjected him to that treatment.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Your Dog May Have Excitement Urination<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dog has excitement urination, he\u2019ll pee when he greets you just as a dog would who submissively urinates. But his body language and demeanor will greatly differ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Both male and female dogs may have submissive urination. <\/em><\/strong>Either sex can submissive urinate, depending on the factors below.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Look at your dog\u2019s body language. <\/em><\/strong>A dog with excitement urination will generally appear playful.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>He may jump, spin, play bow, happily wag his tail, and have loose&#8211;not tense&#8211;body language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He may happily yip or bark. You get the picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Look at your dog\u2019s reactions in other contexts. <\/em><\/strong>Does your dog get happily excited when other people greet him and pee then? Does he pee when playing? If so, he may have excitement urination.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>It occurs more often in puppies under a year old. <\/em><\/strong>Although adult dogs may have excitement urination, it usually occurs in puppies. And they usually outgrow it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Your Dog May Have A Medical Condition Causing Inappropriate Urination<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We often look for behavioral reasons for a dog\u2019s conduct. But sometimes there\u2019s a medical reason why a dog performs certain actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve already eliminated (pun intended) behavioral reasons for the urination, then a vet visit is in order. Some of the possible problems are listed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>There may be a urinary tract infection (UTI). <\/em><\/strong>Some of the possible signs are straining when urinating, blood in the urine, and discomfort when peeing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>I was training a lab mix puppy and the dog peed too often. When greeting people or even playing, he urinated. He was a bold, happy pup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His owner was constantly cleaning up accidents and was understandably distressed. I suggested to the owner that he be checked for a UTI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His vet found that it was a UTI and meds cured it. Now the owner can greet her pup without having a pond also greet her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Your dog may have urinary incontinence. <\/em><\/strong>For a medical reason, your pup may not be able to hold his urine. For example, he may have a \u201cweak bladder.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>He may have a gastrointestinal upset. <\/em><\/strong>He may have an irritable bowel or even have eaten something that he shouldn\u2019t have.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>He may have kidney disease. <\/em><\/strong>This can also cause excessive or inappropriate urination.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>He may have diabetes. <\/em><\/strong>This can cause excessive thirst and urination.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"6\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>.<strong><em>He may be on medications that make him urinate more often. <\/em><\/strong>Steroids, for example, make dogs thirsty and they pee more often.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Should I Do If My Dog Pees When I Get Home?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are things you can do to help correct the problem. But, like most behaviors that need to be modified, it takes time and patience to obtain the desired results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Don\u2019t reach out to greet the dog. <\/em><\/strong>If you reach out to a dog with submissive urination, it\u2019s likely to make him behave in an even more submissive fashion.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to peeing, he may even roll onto his back. This will exacerbate the problem, not improve it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you reach out to a dog with excitement urination, he probably will get even more stimulated. So doing so will make the problem worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Keep greetings low-key and ignore your dog upon greeting. <\/em><\/strong>For both submissive or excitement urination, it\u2019s usually best to just greet the dog calmly without an excited voice or a physical greeting like petting.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Just enter and ignore the dog until he settles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Greet with treats or dog toys. <\/em><\/strong>If your dog\u2019s problem is submissive urination, you don\u2019t want to reach over his head.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>But you can gently underhandedly toss a few <a href=\"https:\/\/puppyintraining.com\/crazy-dog-train-me-treats\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">treats<\/a> away from him and tell him to \u201cget it.\u201d Or toss his favorite toy in the same manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have those items ready as soon as you greet your pup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Pro-Trainer Tip:<\/em><\/strong> Have pea-sized treats ready when working with your dog. You don\u2019t want to be fishing for them or he may be performing unwanted behaviors by the time you find his edible reward.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The purpose is to have him focus on something else that he sees as rewarding and positive. If you find that he still urinates while attempting these methods, then don\u2019t use them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s no cookie-cutter answer for correcting behavior. Each dog\u2019s an individual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can do the same thing for a dog with excitement urination to attempt to focus him on something else when you greet him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"4\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Clean up the accident. <\/em><\/strong>The ship has sailed after he urinates. It\u2019s important to clean it up with an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0DKGCWGPT\/?tag=puppyintraining-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\">enzymatic cleaner<\/a> made for that purpose.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t want him to be drawn back to that area to potty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"5\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Build your dog\u2019s confidence. <\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/puppyintraining.com\/dog-training-commands\/\">Obedience train<\/a> your pup. Learning new behaviors not only builds a dog\u2019s confidence it also communicates what you want and builds your bond.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Properly socialize him in new settings and environments to help his overall confidence level. Expose him to new friendly people and dogs, sounds, and experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"6\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Approach your dog in a non-threatening manner. <\/em><\/strong>This is especially important for dogs with submissive urination. So you should approach him while standing sideways without making eye contact.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>When he eventually settles down, you can approach calmly, not making a fuss. If you pet him, pet him on the chest or under his chin, not over the head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You won\u2019t have to do this forever if you work with him and he makes progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Pro-Trainer Tip:<\/em><\/strong> If you find that you\u2019ve worked with the many tried-and-true methods and aren\u2019t making progress, it\u2019s best to get professional help from an experienced positive-reinforcement dog trainer or behaviorist. Of course, also rule out medical reasons for the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"7\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Praise and reward when your dog urinates in the proper place. <\/em><\/strong>When you take your dog to the pad to potty, praise and reward with a small treat to emphasize that\u2019s the behavior you want.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"8\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Have your dog generalize greeting others without urinating.<\/em><\/strong> After you\u2019ve worked with your dog and resolved the issue, have others do the same.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The people you choose must listen to your guidance. They must greet your dog essentially by at first ignoring him. Then, after he\u2019s settled down, can greet him in a non-confrontational manner as described above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please note though that if your pup had the greeting urination only with you, it\u2019s important that others appropriately greet him..&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It never hurts for a dog to learn how to calmly greet others with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"9\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><em>Move at your dog\u2019s pace. <\/em><\/strong>In order to be successful, have patience.
