To me it just reads that he's so desperate to relieve himself that he's having to do both things at once. The only suggestion i have is possibly taking him out more frequently.

You'd be most welcome here! Vacant until end July! And don't get me wrong - I find having to wash the dog's feet belly and eyes a very small inconvenience attached to living so close to the beaches and where I can see the sea!

I didn't think there was anything I could really do, I was just asking. BTW, the pee isn't disgusting, getting it all over himself is.

I've owned dogs and cats all my life, their pee and poo isn't disgusting and I'm used to it. I'm NOT used to a puppy who pees and then starts pooing and gets pee all over his belly.

I got some dog cleaning wipes from the local store.. maybe those will get the pee of better so he won't end up having to get bathed so much.

I know all that bathing can make their skin and fur bad. I'm taking him out more often and it reduces this... but I really don't like going outside in the middle of the night :/

Oh, well! I'm sure once he stops squatting to pee, this won't be a problem!

It's not disgusting that he pees and poos, it's disgusting that he is constantly getting it all over his belly because he starts pooping while still peeing.

I'll just have to wait for him to grow out of it while trying to take him out more often... it's not a big deal.

Probably just hasn't got the 'muscle control' yet - most dogs are careful to position themselves to avoid their feet when they pee. I marvel at them doing that! He's a baby - give him time.

Jade, my female dog will walk while peeing.. so that's not an issue. It's unpleasant, but I love my little guy so I'm just going to keep bathing and trying new things to wipe him off. He's black so you can't SEE the pee... not that it's an issue because he SMELLS like it.

I agree with Dobionekenobi.

Remus is at the stage if peeing all over his front feet at the moment because he can't yet cock his leg...but he didn't tentatively raise the right one a couple of times recently so maybe he's thinking about it! He does huge wees all over his gangley front legs and big feet. I'm used to it now but every now and I forget and he puts his big pee soaked paws on my shoulders.....yuck!

Hi, Tangutica. You might have misunderstood what I was trying to describe. He will squat to pee.... and then MID pee.. he will then stoop over to poop, while STILL peeing. This causes pee to get on his belly and more or less... go all over the place.

I've never had a dog that did this, or even heard of it. He doesn't do this ALL the time, but frequently enough to where he starts smelling like pee. It's funny, but pretty irritating because I have to keep cleaning him or (EWWW) Jade will start trying to do it.

Both she (ew again) and the wipes I've used don't do any good and he stills ends up needing a bath because once he dries, he still smells like pee. If he hated baths and made things totally difficult, idk what I'd do because it would be like torture for him.

Oh well! Once he stops squatting to pee, I'm sure this will stop... just have to wait it out!

Haha. Yeah it's gross, but we love 'em so it's something we deal with. I'm going to have to just keep bathing my fella... until he cuts this out. So it's like... oh well!
