Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| I just wanted to know if any one has had this issue I have a 3 year old Husky who was Fully trained and never peed in the house and could me left at home for 8 hours and would hold it with no problem but about 3 weeks ago My Gambit has started to pee on base boards and on the feet of my couch he can no longer be left out of the crate while we are gone. I do not know what to do I hate putting him in the crate he was crate free for about 2 years and now I feel like we have a puppy all over again.

| He sounds like he's marking.
Is he neutered?
I'd get a belly band. It'll help with the marking. http://www.amazon.com/Simple-Solution-Washable-Male-Medium/dp/B000FJD5ZS/ref=sr_1_1?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1347464966&sr=1-1&keywords=belly+band |

| No he is not neutered. I am not sure if I want to neuter him do you by any chance know if it changes the dogs personality when they get neutered? I have always been worried he would not be the same dog if we did that to him. |

| I am not 100% sure about wether it changes a dogs personality or not. Most bets swear that it doesn't with ANY animal but I've had both of my cats done and they are almost completely different cats. Every dog I've had has been fixed when I got them or I was to young to remember it. I've heard it calms most dogs dOwn a bit as they don't have that natural instinct to bred anymore but I do know that when my GSD got fixed her gained a good deal of weight. I would say it shouldn't change your Gambit to much since most people have their dogs fixed, ya know. |

| I would take him to the vet in case he has a UTI. They will check him over and, if he has a UTI, they can treat it and that will solve the problem. If they find him clear then you'll have to look at other solutions. You can always discuss neutering with the vet while you are there. |

| No, neutering will not change their personality. It's a myth. It will however prevent many common cancers and ensure you don't add to the husky overpopulation issue. Yes, take him to the vet - it happened to Chili and it turned out he had an infection. |

| In an un neutered dog that sounds like marking! Neutering may or may not stop the marking. It should help though. I
I haven't heard that it will "change" their personality. Mostly it helps with the want the "wander" and marking. It also drops his changes of certain kinds of cancer. |
