I have a terrior mix who's 2 years old. He's house broken, and a pretty decient dog when he wants to be. We moved reciently and have had a really hard time with him peeing all over the house. We let the him out and try to keep him on a schedule, but it dosen't matter... he'll pee in small bits outside and then go in the house. We have another dog who's 3 and we have had no issues with him at all. Our Terrior is the more dominate dog, but this is reduclous. We have used every trick in the book and just can't get it to stop. PLEASE HELP.

Probably the most important question is has he been neutered?
My male Poodle used to have "accidents" in the house at least once a week. We had him neutered when he was just over 12 months and it has completely stopped.
I'm not saying neutering is a magic cure-all but it certainly does help with a lot of problems.
Are there are specific places he goes or does he just lift his leg on random objects?
If there are specific places he goes then putting a deterrent there may help. Tin foil is a good one, you sit it loosely around the offending object and when the dog pees on it it makes a horrible noise instantly correcting them.

I am wondering if he has been checked out for infections. You say he goes in small bits inside and outside.
If he is cleared for an infection then maybe you need to retrain him as if he is a new puppy. He may just need a reminder of what is expected of him.

You said you moved recently, and now he pees all over the new house. I'm guessing there's a connection -- he may be marking his new territory? Or is ill-at-ease in a new, strange place?
