My dog keep peeing on the door and something has to be done. Discipline. My choices are:
1. Take away his dinner for the day
2. Keep him tied up to the door
3. Physically
Well, what do you think? If I HAD to do one of those 3 options?
Answer:
Nobby:
None of those. Do this;
1 - Take the dog to the vet and have it checked for a urinary tract infection.
2 - When the vet has given the all clear, house train the dog using the target training method;
You cant train a dog where not to pee, thats too abstract for them. You can train them where you want them to go.
Mark off a spot for them with something like tent pegs and string, and add a wooden pee post for males. Bait it with some of their poop and pee stained paper.
Take them there on the lead once an hour and wait patiently.
Eventually they will need to go and your job is to make it happen on that spot. When they do, give a suitable command, praise and reward.
They soon get the idea.
Never punish a dog for toileting in the wrong place, its stupid and pointless. They dont understand it. They pee because they need to pee, and they cant hold it without training.

Well, if your doing is peeing in the house, then it's the humans fault for not getting the dog out in time. So, maybe your dinner should be taken away or maybe you should be punished physically...what do you think about that.
Your dog pees on the floor for 3 reasons:
1) dog wasn't taken out soon enough
2) dog wasn't house trained properly...both of these fall on the owner
3) the dog has a UTI or kidney infection, in that case, medical help is necessary.
Kunal:
None! First of all, taking away his dinner is cruelty, they get hungry
and they will start barking until u feed him.. Second, tying him out
side your house is crazy dangerous!!! My friend had a shetland sheepdog
who was tied outside their house and he got loose and got hit by a car
and died instantly!😢 And lastly, physically is NEVER the correct
answer!!!!!!! Physically will not help a dogs obidience… it will make
them mentally scarred and they will be terrified every time he sees you
and will be traumatized, also doing it enough times can be abuse and
super bad and cruel. My maltese is not fixed and he pees on
curtains(even if out yard door is open), so we have a technique that
some what works, after he pees, clean it with a paper napkin and put
that napkin on his face for just about a second or two.( ya it sounds
gross, but it will teach him what happens if pees thr)Also if he
continues he may hve a urine problem and should visit the vet or you
might not be letting him out enough.

Or he probably aint potty trained, try buying puppy training pads, they
also work, my dogs are all 7 and they still use the pads.
Tigril:
Well,,
there are two sure fired methods to house train a dog. One is to show
your dog. If you want to show it how you want to be done, you need to
pee where you want it to pee while your dog is watching. You need to
repeat this as often as it takes, but eventually it will work.
I don't know why it helps, but banging your head against a wall after you've followed this advice seems for some unfathomable reason to really accelerate the process.
This is the best kept secret I am revealing to you for totally free. It has been given to me by my best friends uncle great-great aunt's nephew and he said it never fails as long as a troll does it.

Dogs
don't respond with that sort of discipline. They do not correlate their
behaviour to your punishment. Besides, you don't teach dogs by
punishing them. You teach dogs by letting them know what you want. If
they don't know what you want, they can't do it. Dogs LIVE to please
humans. They WANT to please you. So if your dog is peeing on the floor
1) He either doesn't know that it isn't ok or 2) He has an incontinence
problem, which is a medical issue.
The best way to teach your dog what you want, is when you take him for walks and he goes "praise" him. Let him know that it is good to go - do his business - outside. He will probably actually correlate his "business" with going for a walk. Which is easy, when he eventually alerts you that he wants to go outside, go out with him.. until eventually, you can just let him out in the yard to go. It takes patience. Some dogs learn faster than others. But never use physical punishment, they don't get it. They will cower down and look all guilty and sad, but they really don't know what they did wrong. Even if you do it right after they pee. Dogs are kinda dumb like that. As Ceasar Millan says "dogs live in the moment". Once they pee, they are on to something else... and then you punish them for peeing and they are like, "what was THAT for?". It just confuses them and makes them mentally disturbed.
