do intacked males always lift?

[zoomer]

No, it's something they learn themselves, if they want to I guess. I know lots of intact males that do not lift their legs. And it's not really a male thing (hehe) Georgia does it all the time (although I hate it ^^!).

Clover lifts her leg, and Tinny wont squat still when peeing so she can mark a bigger area ... dominant brats that i have. Elvis lifts on everthing when outside, but knows not to in the house... he act's entire, but isn't.

When I adopted Bud he was intact and squated to pee, he was then neutered and still squatted. It wasn't until he saw another male dog lift his leg that he started to lift. And he does in my house once in a while still!

Micki will lift his leg in the house, and he's been neutered since he was about three month old He also lifts his leg outside most of the time. Jack on the other hand has never lifted his leg, and he's (almost) two.

I too think its a bit silly to wait until they start lifting to get them neutered, but thats just my opinion

Loki is intact and he doesn't lift his leg, and never pees in the house. Jake lifts his leg but doesn't pee in the house.

BC_MoM-When Lacy has to pee she waddles around the yard like she wants to cover all the grass with it. She won't stay in one place. Now THAT'S a weird little dog! lol

Charlie used to do that too, whenever one would have an accident in the house we would always know who did it because Jamie's would all be in one puddle whereas Charlies would be on one puddle with a squiggle leading down the hallway... haha. Here lately though he doesn't seem to do it as much, I wonder if he just "grew out of it".

When he poops, though, he walks in circles around me, so I have to watch for "land mines" while walking back to the apartment.. haha

Prince lifts his leg super high up! One time while lifting his leg, he lifted it too far and fell over. Silly dog. He's neutered and he still lifts his leg and once in a while pees in the house.

Molly and Astra both squat. Molly squat and pees in one spot but Astra is usually too hyper to just squat there and pee so she walks while peeing. It looks funny.
