Hi guys, need some opinion. My shihtzu/maltese (female by the way) has developed this problem and it is getting worst. Babe likes to greet us by jumpin on us and we'll say hello and pat her. If we go off for a few days & come back, she''ll be so excited, she'll pee a few drops greeting us. I use to have a maid so babe has company while we are @ work. But our maid has gone back for good. We are also out more often due to work. We eat out as we have no time. Nowadays, she pees a lot more. My parents come home earlier from work, babe will pee a little 50 cent puddle when we reach out to pet her. It has graduated to her peeing when jumping on us and we haven't even reach out our hands to her yet and the puddle is getting bigger and bigger. Now it is the size of 4 fifty cent coin sometimes. If someone has already come home, then when she greet the second person that comes home, she will be happy greeting us but won't be so over excited and is more controlled. I scold her a bit and wipe but I have no heart to punish her. Nowadays, when I see that she is too excited, I will greet her but won't touch her until later but sometimes she pees just at the sight of us. I'll tell her "No peeing" while I slowly reach my hand out. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. My heart goes out to her. I know my babe is very lonely during the day. I wanted to get her a companion. But my mom screamed bloody murder and threatened all sorts of things. So I'll have to wait until I get my own place. Mean time, I buy her more toys and spent more time manja manja her when I am home. Problem is, here, you can't really bring your kid out with you to a lot of places. Meanwhile, my mom is complaining my ears off bout my furkid. Anyway, just hit me the other day, (1) can she be graduating from over excited peeing to submissive peeing? (2) What else can I do to help ease her loneliness during the day when we are all out? Laura & Babe
