Llewelyn almost 9 months - never cocked his leg!

[rwasinski]

Our baby boy still 'tooties on down' (as we day around here) to go for a wee.

It's not really a problem apart from the fact he keeps weeing over his feet and so stinks (he is known as Smelly Welly!)

How old was your cocker boy when he started cocking his leg??

I have an 11 month old boy - Otto, he started cocking at about 7 -8 months - was very wobbly to start with.  Sometimes now if he is tired he doesnt bother cocking!!

4 1/2 months old - he started early.

My Paisley is 4 and he still does girly ones    He has never cocked his leg just sort of leans forward 

Monty was 2 before he cocked his.

Rodaidh was already cocking when I got him at 5.5 months old and Alfie was about 4-5 months I think. Is Llewelyn castrated? Sometimes dogs that are neutered young don't tend to cock their legs (if they haven't already started when they're done).

Fred wasnt a regular 'cocker' until we got Kooki (he was 18 months at the time) and now he does a mixture of cocks and squats depending on where he is aiming for-the astro turf is always a squatting zone but the washing line and my lavender bushes are a cockers 'cocking heaven'

My goldie Bracken is 13 and he has never done the manly thing

Does it depends if they have another dog to copy?  Odie is the only one at home so doesn't do it yet but my brother's castrated border terrier pup cocked his leg at around 4 months old as he lived with 2 other dogs.  Mind you, I've just had Charlie whippet out for a walk and he always cocks, this time obviously couldn't be bothered and swatted   Lesley

Maybe some of them imitate other dogs but I didn't have another dog when I got Alfie, he just did it of his own accord, a little bit too enthusiastically the first time cos he keeled over sideways

   good on ya Alfie   

not in Jarv's case either, he's an 'only' dog

No cocking here so far either. I wonder if they dont have another dog to copy they just do what comes naturally, but if they have a girl to copy they just copy her instead and dont get round to cocking ? Who knows xxx

Alfie was about 8/9 months when he first cocked his leg & then promptly toppled over    At the time he was our only dog & i'm pretty sure sometimes he wishes he still was.

William is 6 years old and still "curtseys" to pee more often than not, although I've noticed a bit more cocking since Louis has been around  Louis started cocking at about 4 or 5 months I think.

Roly was about 5 months when he did it for the first time, but only started doing it regularly at about a year old.

[SimonandMandy]

Harv was about 5 or 6 months, he had the wobbles 

Harv now cocks his leg in public but if he is desperate or at home outta sight he still girlie squats
