Hi Mj dog puppies experience a surge of the male hormone testosterone at around 6-7 months old, this leads to the development of secondary sex characteristics a such as leg lifting.

Puppies develop at slightly different rates puppy to puppy breed to breed so there is a slight variation in the age at which they start to lift their legs.

Ralph started not too far back actually, so say nine months ish? maybe eight..
However Florrie is a freak who elevates her whole rear end too pee up things so she DOES balance on her front feet-now go figure THAT!

Tigger started when he was six months old but he still crouches from time to time too, so they may do both for a while. He also seems to lose interest half way through and run off after something when his bladder is not quite empty yet-he's such an impulsive little plonker.

Luke, I suffer from a vivid imagination so can you even imagine what youve done to me by describing Florrie's antics!!

No, no tree. Just in the middle of a field, hoists her posterior in the air and 'lets go',poor Ralph usually ends up getting splashed.
She really is a curious dog..

Tyler does both!!
He lifts his leg and still squats,he starting doing it at around 8 months.......He usually squats first thing then goes around putting his mark on anything and everything in the garden.
We have had the odd marking in the house up the dining room chair leg and up the dirty washing,so we watch him quite closely.
