I have had a English bull terrier for over 3 years got he is now 6 years he never really does any damage apart from the odd digging on the settee, but my real issue is the Norfolk terrier we bought a little over two years ago. We have to look the both in the second living room as the Norfolk terrier wee's up anything he can. I clean and clean and clean and he still does it. I've tried shouting, looking him out for 10 minutes as a time out, special cleaning product even using olbis oil as a pet shop owner told me to try. And nothing will work... Can some please help both dog still have there manhood sleep in the same bed and cuddle up.lol

Give the dog up! I don't know, immediate feedback.

Wow CraigJCasey.. Bad advise..

Well, if both dogs are intact (have their balls) and are living in the same house, you having a turf war :)

Just because they are OK with each other, doesn't mean that they are not "claiming" things.

Your best bet to get this problem under control is to neuter them. There are a lot of benefits to neutering male dogs.. Peeing excessively and marking being one of them. It also cuts the chances of them getting testicular cancer in half.

This is also a learned behavior. Both dogs are claiming their areas and may actually be doing this more so during specific times of the year due to neighborhood females being in heat. Male dogs can smell a female in heat up to 1 mile away! For some people, that's their entire neighborhood!

When you are not around, instead of locking them up in a HUGE room to do whatever they please, start using a crate. Crate them separately. Crates are not evil or bad, you're not locking them up in a cage... you're providing them a safe place that is 100% theirs. Crates keep good dogs good.

As for clean up, don't use anything with ammonia in it. Use an ezyme based cleaner. A good one that I use is Nature's Miracle. You're going to have to scrub and soak the area until it reaches the carpet pad. Same goes for hardwood floor.

If they pee while you are around, I would suggest to get a male wrap. If they do pee, it'll be contained until you can get them under control...

I still suggest to neuter them. It'll help you out tremendously!

Lucky, it was a joke. Immediate feedback to a dogs behavior is bad?

No, joking advice to a serious question asked of, likewise, serious people is bad - and insulting to the person asking, a person who is concerned enough to take the time and effort to post the question on a public Internet board.

Immediately useless feedback is just that - useless.

I realize you are very new "here" but it might save you some aggravation if you look through other posts, other answers, see the manner in which questions are answered, before you continue to respond in a flippant manner.

Otherwise - my colleague, "Lucky," has the answers.

Immediate feedback to a dogs behavior that is not helpful isn't much of a joke... Kind of lame, actually.
