Don't we have a dog expert here? Step on in.

Oof. Remember bedliner on the hootus?

Not an expert by any means but our female GSD puppy did similar. She seems to have grown out of it. She sprinkle tinkles sometimes when super excited when you first get home. I immediately let both dogs out when i get home. No pets or love inside. Immediately let them outside. Def recommend crate training. I would also be overly animated with praise, give treats, etc. everytime she pees outside. Like Richard Simmons level of gay praise. Hopefully she will correlate the response with the action. Ours eventually did.

Crate train the dog. Put the crate near a door so you can take her straight outside when you uncrate her. Don’t engage her at all or let others engage her until she has been outside to pee. When she pees outside pet her and praise her.

Also, make your kid take her out to pee every 30 minutes or so to make sure she has less in the tank.

Thanks guys, this helps a lot. Like I said, she's a super sweet dog. Best dog I've ever had was a standard poodle. Had to put her down 2 years ago so when Levi wanted a dog, it seemed like a no brainer. This pup isn't even a year old and is a super great dog other than this pee issue. Guess I need to get a crate and go through that process. Every other dog I've ever had was easy to housebreak and didn't have the nervous bladder. Guess I've been lucky.

She is lacking confidence.

I would ignore her, no eye contact until she calms a bit then do the pets and praises.

She's just too excited and very young. work with training her just you and her and she should do better.

Shit man, that's still young. Some of them just carry it a little longer, like kids wetting the bed. The dog I have now was almost two before he really quit entirely. Still has a very rare dribble if somebody new comes over and gets him really spun up, but he's more excitable than the last few I've had.

She'll be fine.

I’m pretty close to knowing a thing. But you need to seriously look up a Cesar Milan video on it. I’d bet he has one and he does know dogs.

Try to break her on a leash. Shorter leash. Let her get excited then immediate reprimand and showing of the pee. Then return immediately to what you were doing. Make sure it doesn’t associate excitement and reprimand.

You need to associate the pee when amped up with No.

Or do nothing and many dogs grow out of it.

I guess I need to clarify, it's not only excitement pee. It's literally every time one of us touches her, not just me. She will sit and wait to be petted. And as soon as somebody does, she lifts a little bit and pees. Me, my wife, any of the kids, it doesn't matter who, she does it. I'll look up this Cesar Milan though. Thanks for suggestions!

I think she doesn't understand where she is supposed to pee so she's holding it in and losing control whenever she gets any attention.

I suggest treating her like an unhousetrained puppy, and even though it's frustrating, you have to control yourself and only give positive reinforcement. Anytime you think she might pee, take her outside and tell her to pee and praise her profusely when she does. This might mean you have to wait a while until she pees. That includes whenever you wake up in the morning, before you leave the house, when you get back, when you want to interact with her, when she wants to interact with you, when she stands up, whenever she might have to pee.

Also, when she does pee in the wrong spot, in the middle of the peeing, you have to grab her and calmly, but quickly, take her outside. Yes, she will pee on you, the carpet, the kids, but just do it. Once outside, praise her for peeing there. Telling the dog "No" and sticking her nose in it just further reinforces that peeing is bad, but doesn't teach her how to do it right. You also cannot do anything about pees that you haven't seen, as in, if there's a wet spot on the carpet when you come home, it's too late, let it go, the time to teach has passed.

Good luck.

I have a 11yo standard poodle. Been a great dog, but they are wired different. Very smart, very sensitive. The 'normal' methods seem counterproductive, at least is was with mine.

Highly doubt at one year that she doesn't know that outside is where she is supposed to pee. Sounds to me like that her peeing is her being submissive more than anything. Not sure how to deal with that though.

Submissive peeing takes a softer approach imo too.

Just a quick sirch

I'm referring to Jennsenkennels or some shit like that. It had a J and kennels.

not saying he was "fed-boi" be he was DEFINITELY LEO adjacent.

His build brought me to Pirate4x4 from a 4bt swap forum, but by the end I was glad when he went away.

Sounds correct, I vaguely recall kicking a hornet’s nest when I mentioned using negative reinforcement to train (mine, not anyone else’s) stubborn ass bird dogs. He and several others basically threatened to call PETA that I would slap a dog with an open palm when they were total assholes.

Our current dog is an almost 2 year old GSP and had a bad play biting habit when he was little. Zero aggression, just goofing off, but it hurt like hell and he would get your hands, face, etc. I tried all the modern age kumbaya dog training stuff with the clicker, yelping when he bit me, treats, pinching his lip on his own teeth, and so on. Probably four months into being attacked, I grabbed him by his collar, beat the shit out of his face (again, with an open hand) while yelling “quit fucking biting me!” as loud as I could. That 100% stopped it though he continued to bite my wife while she asked why he only did it to her and not me.

GSP are very trainable but Stubborn as they get. I’ve trained a few to hunt others as house dogs. They make you prove who’s boss randomly their entire lives.
