Question
My Bulldog is male and does the same thing. The problem is that he has a doggie door to a beautiful back yard were he can mark anything he wants. I do have a male German Shepherd but both are neutered. How do I get him to stop peeing on his bed?  

Answer
Hi Gina, Well this can be a hard one to deal with.  Make sure you wash the bed well with something that takes all the smell out.  Dogs can smell 200x better than we can.  He may still smell the pee marking even after you have washed the bedding.
Also, the areas on the rug or floor need to be washed over and over to get the smell out.
VERY hard to do.

You can place some of that Deterant Sprays ( NO Go) around the bedding -  Also, this sounds awful but some folks sprinkle pepper around the areas .....when they sniff - OH!

I am not a behavior person - mainly health questions.
