I don't know the answer, but you got a lot of good advice here from others that have been through something similar. I hope your guy gets a healthy report tomorrow.
We (all of a sudden) had a problem with our female piddling wherever and whenever she felt like it. So we started putting her out every hour for 10 minutes or so. When she piddled outside we made sure she got a treat and a lot of praise when she came in. Then we'd wait a couple of hours and start the routine again. It worked for us but I know it doesn't work for everyone.

Yes I've heard of dogs doing this and it's usually asssociated with something that's upsetting them. Since it's chose your bed it would seem it has to do with something that's occuring between you and your DH. Does the dog use one side or the other to pee on? If you'd like to PM me I maybe able to offer some reasons and then you could try a different approach to repremending rover.

this has been going on for a year ,on and off. maybe twice a week or so.
i need to buy a second mattress protector..i have to wait for the one to be washed and dried before i can make the bed again.
i am frustrated.
:thumbdown:
any help/ideas would be greatly appreciate..
oh and caging him will not help, he does it when i am home..!
and i do have another dog..she is a bully to him. she is younger.
i am taking off now to my quilt group..will be back to check later..

Why don't you make a few belly bands(to cover and protect from peeing on things). My aunt has a few small rescue dogs and she can't get one to stop peeing in the house so if he's in, he's covered. They are just fabric and batting and she has to change them after he tries to pee a few times.
I really think it's a territorial thing.

Well I agree with the obvious ...close the door. If it happens while you are home you might try tethering his leash to a belt you wear. You can crate if you are not home. Remember you are the Alpha of your "pack". If you don't lead the dog will assume the role.
