When does leg lifting start?

Why is it a big deal if he does/doesn't left his leg?

Char has never done it. Maybe ONCE (or maybe that was Jamie??) but I think it was because they were in an odd position in the first place, LOL. He has never lifted his leg and still squats. He was neutered at... seven months and is 1 1/2 now and still squats

My cousin's Westie was fixed before he started lifing his leg and he never did. I don't think it's a big deal.

Buster has never lifted his leg. I don't think it's a big deal to be honest.

Lots of male dogs never lift their legs when they pee. Cracker has never done it. He has a manly lean forward hehe. He was neutered at 6 months old. It's nothing to be concerned with and your dog may never do it. I actually prefer it as he doesn't pee all over everything and doesn't stop on walks to mark everything in sight.

Kaige is 9 months old, in tact & still doesn't lift his leg, hasn't even begun to try to either.
I wouldn't worry, personally I think it's a good thing, there's less of a chance for him to mark.

Tito never lifted his leg until we got Bella, and then when we ot Bo, Bella started lifting her leg too! LOL
