    Gracie does this too. Although she is a female. She's just a very dominant female so she sort of lifts her leg sometimes to mark a tree or a bush.

    REST IN PEACE GRACIE. NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT I DON'T MISS YOU.

    My in-laws' intact chihuahua female will lift her leg when she pees, but she doesn't pee on anything, she'll just walk out to the middle of the yard and goes as far down to the ground as possible while leaning to one side and hikes a leg up.

    RB Cody only partially lifted his leg ever..maybe he started around 2 y.o. Sometimes he just didn't. As long as he peed outside, I didn't care, although, admittingly, I did poke fun at him

    Mz Logan, however, is known to lift HER leg at the dog park! She LOVES to pee up against a tree after a male dog did his duty, much to everyone's entertainment!!

    Spanky does this but only when going number two. It's really strange!

    Buster never does just because he doesn't have good hips. Rudy doesn't lift his leg of course he's only 6 and a half months old. Rocky always lifts his leg, he always has and he's almost 12 years!

    Scruffy was neutered at 6 months and started lifting his leg at about a year. Now he only lifts it occasionally. Since he only has one back leg, it looks kinda funny to see him lift his whole rear end in the air.

    I think Fenway started lifting his leg about 8-12 months.
    I love Fenway, JoJo, Olivia and Nonnie!

    Eli has never lifted his leg and he was neuetered at about 8 months
    Ozzy i think would sometimes lift his leg before he was injured but only every once in awhile to pee on a post..not very often

    My moms dog Annie hikes her leg when she pees. She is spayed, but she has done it for as long as I can remember.

    Deebo started lifting his leg when he was probably around a year old or so.. We didn't get him neutered until he was 2 - 2 1/2.. I wish we would have had him neutered sooner so he wouldn't have learned to hike his leg up.. But he is so tiny, and has had some health problems in the past, so we were worried he wouldn't make it off the table.. We waited until we found a great vet that we really trusted and had it done by laser... We figured that would be safer for him.
