Why Does My Dog Pee When Excited?
Excitement peeing is most often found in happy, hyper, young dogs that may not have full bladder control. Dogs frequently outgrow this form of peeing as they mature and emotionally calm down.
It can become worse if your dog is suddenly awakened or startled, and then gets very animated (such as when you come home while they’re taking a nap).
How to Stop Excitement Urination
To help your puppy with excitement urination, maintain a calm, quiet demeanor and be consistent.
Signs and Identification A dog that displays this behavior will typically show other submissive signs, such as tucking the tail, looking away, licking the lips, and rolling over on the back. This should be differentiated from other conditions involving inappropriate urination, such as excitement urination. Excitement urination is somewhat different, occurring when a dog is overly excited, usually when the owner or visitors greet the dog. Affected dogs wag their tails and do not display submissive postures. Though submissive urination occurs most commonly in puppies, it can happen with any dog at any age.
