started lifting his leg?

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

When I worked at the HS I remember quite a few male dogs(intact and some neutered) never lifted their legs and I also remember quite a few intact females that did. I guess it just depends on the dog.

LOL So I'm reading through this thread, every reply and everything, when it suddenly hits me that I'm reading a thread about whether a dog lifts his leg when he pees or not. hehe gotta love Pet Talk!

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.

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.

Blair started around 10 months, I dunno about Ripley and Rusty as they are both rescues, and I havent had them since puppies. my dads boy Guinness though is a year old and still doesnt lift his leg.
