Pee position
« on: January 21, 2007, 09:29:33 PM »
Hi

My cooper is over 5 month old now but he still bent down when he pees. Is that a problem?

Ben was 5 1/2 months before he cocked his leg and I think even that was early?  My lovely golden retriever (at the bridge now) never cocked, and peed like a girl all the time!

Give Cooper more time and don't worry if he squats for a long time yet  ;)

hi cooper,
i`m not an expert,but i did read somewhere that they dont start cocking their leg up until they`re around 1 year old (or even later)

bramble is heading towards 5 months and he squats down.


cheers

they're all different, some are early (mine was 4 1/2 months), some start around 6 months, and some never cock their legs at all.... ;)

JJ my rescue golden ret was 14 months when we got him from a rescue and he had only started to cock his leg at 15-16months and that was still inbetween squatting. He even attempts to cock on the grass now.. and usually falls over.  :005:

Our German Shepherd never cocked his leg, he always Pee'd like a horse sort of just standing still with his hips slightly forward  :lol:. It was good though because he only pee'd when he needed to go & we didn't have to stop at every lampost  ;)

Snoopy still squats most of the time unless there is something for him to put his leg on for balance  :005: as he topples over.  He is now 15 months, he also cocks more when he's with Molo as he shows him how to do it properly :lol:

Glen still squats and he is nearly 5 months. It doesn't bother me but at least I would be able to figure out who kept leaving the puddles under the kitchen table if he cocked.  :005:

Milo is 7 months now and has only just started to cock his leg. He doesn't do it all the time- really only when he is peeing next to a wall.
