hi there, i understand what your going through, i have the same problem with my 5 year old pug. i have took her to the vet when she was a puupy and hey told me that she should grow out of it, but she never did so i took her back and said that its just something im going to have to live with cause theres nothing you can do about it, i suggest ignoring her as soon as you get home so that she doesnt get to excited

hope i helped =)

• Not all but most small breeds are like that. Its something that you are just going to have to live with and hope maybe she does grow out of it. I wouldn't ignore her, thats sending the message that your not excited to see her. Dogs want to plz there masters. If it bothers you that bad crate her while you are away so your able to pick her out of the crate and carry her outside. Be proud that she gets that excited to see you means she loves you. My female boston does but my male has never had that problem, he just does doggie tatrums:)


• It's usually a puppy thing they grow out of...they're just so excited to see you they can't hold it in!
  You can try just not making any fuss of the dog when you first walk in, completely ignore it for 30 seconds or so and give her time to calm down before you make a fuss of her.
  Someone once told me spaying them can help stop the habit, but I've never seen that work with anyone else's dog, and I don't see why it would particularly, although in general spaying is a good idea.


• It's called submissive peeing and most puppies outgrow it. If not, take her to the vet, there's meds available to increase urethral tone.
  
  This is a puppy you need to not make eye contact with, be very, very low-key in your greetings, ignoring her for a couple of minutes would be best. Kee your voice low and quiet and she might get better just with you working with her.


• It will go away, my dog used to do the same thing. We tried to sneak into the house so she wouldn't get excited.
  I'm don't quite remember when she stopped but we were glad.
  Also glad we have hardwood floors.


• She is young and very excitable. In time she will outgrow this. Until then continue to rush her outside.She will soon learn that this is the correct behavior, peeing outside.
