I love my dog, 6 years old, about 50 lbs. he’s sweet and wonderful. But. He insists on going outside 4-5 times a day to go pee because he never goes all the way to empty his bladder. He’ll insist on finding a ‘good’ smelling area and will wet there, quit, and even if there is a block longer on our walk he’ll stay full until we get home only to insist on going back out a short while longer.
How do I deal with this? I’m a city apartment dweller and have to put on full winter gear and go outside with him so it’s becoming a frustration of mine.
This, they always can urinate more. Ops doggo just likes to go on walks with them.
My little girl demands to walk 2 or 3 times in the morning. I have a flexible enough job that I can take a 15 minute break and walk her. But sometimes I have to tell her she is SOL and has to wait.
I’ve let her go as long as 12 hours without a walk and she does fine as well. Dogs are resilient creatures.
