Rupert cocks his leg to mark but if he's just going for a pee he mostly just stands there and pees all over his front legs He squatted once and peed all over his chest as well as his front legs, he's not done that again.

If Jake pees coz he needs to empty his bladder, then he does a slight squat. If he is marking something then he will cock his leg.

Little One, a spayed bitch, always raised her right hind leg as high as she could, frequently turning the toes under on her left hind paw, with the not-infrequent occurence of a near head-over-heels in mid-stream.

It used to amaze me to see Pereg pee like a normal bitch, with a dead straight forwards leaning angled back and her head, doing a curtsey as she peed.

LO would also pee little drops every few metres when out to mark her journey, whereas Pereg rarely pees when out.

Diesel squats, always has done....And he's now 4

Ben learnt to cock his leg from watching Mia - but he dosent always get it right

On morning he went right up to a tree, sniffed at it to find the right spot and proudly cocked the wrong leg
Peed a little, dropped the leg and squatted a little then lifted the correct leg and peed up the tree

Most often now if he is marking he lifts his leg sooooooo high in the air that he almost flips over

madame Mia cocks her leg quite often - even if she is having a big pee - and if it is an important marking place (somewhere new if she is a bit unconfident) then she might follow it up with a tiny walking poo - you need a lot of bags if out with Mia in a marking mood

Louie and Benjie do a mixture of squats and cocking of the leg and Sadie will always squat.

Louie has even started cocking whilst weeing and pooing so it's a half cock, half squat - weird!

Don't we have the best conversations

Cain always squats like a little girly if he's going in the garden or has a full bladder on walks. He will lift his leg for marking on walks but only of he's done a big wee first. I've never seen him cock his leg in the garden.

Layton tries to get his leg so high in the air (it's like a very badly coordinated kid - or me - trying to do a handstand) that he's actually pulled a muscle in his leg and made himself limp doing it before. He's also tried to lift it so high he's made himself almost topple over before - full marks for enthusiasm and effort!

Nancy squats, at different heights for a number one and number 2.

Phil has to be in the mood to pee like a boy dog, If hes tired he just pees, no squatting, no cocking just stands and generally pees on his front feet white feet and pee are never a good match

Ozzy always always always cocks his leg, even if there is nothing to cock it up He also lifts his leg so high it is a wonder how he doesn't fall over

Ludi nearly always cocks his leg, which is a good thing because if he squats he pees all over his front legs

Teddy always cocks and also cocks his leg when he poos

Lola is a lady and squats
