darren m Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 whats the best course of action with timid dogs. i,m not talking gun shy, think we are ok there at the moment. its more if i raise my voice or if she knows shes done something wrong or meeting new dogs etc . she,ll fall on the floor and wriggle on her back submiting sometimes weeing . is it best to just ignore it??

DustyIrl Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 I was told that they dont have full control of there bladder until a year or older. She should grow out of it. My dog is the same. Lets out a squirt when excited also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyb Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 yes mate , little spaniel bitch 9 months old Dont worry then I had the exact same thing with my cocker until she was at least 1-2 years.. And I'm starting to see the same thing with my 13 week old Springer, he will pee when excited or told off It's just a spaniel thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickyspringer Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 haha this thread has made me laugh, it just a typical spaniel thing, it can be a nuisance though, my bitch always does it when the landlord comes. "its a spaniel thing" i tell her. No worrying to do now mate, there is nothing wrong with the dog just a silly springer. Regards RS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WGD Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 My springer is 2 in December and can still **** like a jet wash if her bladder's full and she's excited. As for the submissive state, that's not timid it's just submissive relaxed greeting. All sounds normal mate... unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
