| He wont stop marking
Ok, my boy Brady has always had a thing about marking on things. I was told to get him fixed and he would calm down on this, if not stop completely. He has been fixed for almost 2 yrs and still he keeps marking.
Does anyone have a clue why he keeps doing this? We have no other dogs that come in the house. We just recently bought a new recliner for our family room and behold the marking monster comes along and sprays all over it.
Any ideas on how to get him to stop??

you could put a doggie diaper on him. in expensive way to do this is buy baby pullups and cut a hole in the back for the tail. or for about 20 dollars you can buy a cloth wrap that wraps around the lower extremities and velcro taped to itself.. you can make one also. however the dog will rub up against everything to pull it off, where as with the diaper they cant. it does take a few days to get them use to it but it does work.if you keep putting it back on them.

Vets are incorrect when they tell you neutering stops unwanted marking behavoir and aggression...when in most cases it makes it worse. Once the dog has started marking..it is now considered a learned behavoir and it needs to be stopped by not neutering..but by you correcting it.

He has gotten a little worse and he is also more aggressive towards other dogs that visit the house. He has always been aggressive with other males around our home and yard, but is fine at the dog park. Now he seems to be getting aggressive with females around the house. Ahhh time to figure out a plan for this ole boy, lol.

Neutering screws up the body balance by taking the hormones away. This day in age most dogs are adapted to it. But you get the odd few the do not. My one Malinois is neutered and he was fine up until after his neuter. Got more aggressive, loss bladder control and developed allergies including reaction to the rabies vaccine.
There are alot of websites out there that explain the negative aspects for neutering. The only thing neutering and spaying in my opinion is good for..is unwanted litters. Yeah males cant get testicular cancer or females pyrametria (sp?) but it increases the risk for other diseases. This is how I view it..if God when he created this wonderful creatures wanted us to spay and neuter...would he of put the dangly bits there? No he wouldnt of.
I can provide you with links if you would like them..just let me know

Yes please, that would be great. I really didnt know the pros and cons to it. I was just going by what my vet was telling me.
