Hello, This is duz🙂
I have a friend's dog who pees whenever he meets a person.
When a young puppy gets overly excited and happy, it exhibits a behavior called 'excitement urination'.
It is said that even adult dogs can sometimes exhibit excitement urination.
Today, we will look into the causes of excitement urination and how to prevent it.
Reason for urination
First, 'excitement urination' is a phenomenon that often occurs in young puppies.
When they become overly excited and happy, they may lose control of their emotions, causing the sphincter and bladder to relax, leading to accidents anywhere. 😅
This can happen because young puppies have underdeveloped emotional control and weaker sphincter and bladder functions.
Therefore, most puppies who experience excitement urination naturally stop as they grow older and become adult dogs.
The Relationship Between Excitement Urination and Personality
Generally, excitement urination is greatly influenced by a dog's personality. Let's explore which personalities are more prone to excitement urination. 🧐
First, dogs with excitable personalities.
The main cause of excitement urination is being in a "state of excitement."
Therefore, dogs that are easily excited tend to be more prone to excitement urination.
Secondly, emotionally unstable or timid personalities. 😟
Excitement urination does not only occur when a dog is happy.
It can also happen when they are scared or under stress.
Thirdly, dogs with a strong sense of dependency.
Dogs that are highly dependent on their owners and have strong submissive tendencies may urinate as a sign of submission.
How to Prevent Excitement Urination
It’s nice to greet your dog with enthusiasm, but since you want them to live comfortably with you, it’s important to work on improving excitement urination. Let's look at some ways to prevent it. 🤔
First, avoid creating situations that cause excitement.
Since the main cause of excitement urination is a "state of excitement," it is crucial to avoid triggering excitement.
Young puppies find it difficult to control their emotions, so it’s important to remove them from overly stimulating situations. However, this is often easier said than done.
If your dog gets excited when you come home, instead of calling their name and showering them with affection right away, try ignoring them until they calm down. Once they have settled, then speak to them and pet them gently.
If your dog starts excitement urination while being held, stop what you’re doing immediately and clean up the mess. 🧹
Secondly, use commands.
If your dog is well-trained with commands like "sit" or "lie down," use these commands to help them stay calm.
Possibility of a Medical Condition Rather Than Excitement Urination
While excitement urination can occur in young puppies who have underdeveloped emotional control and weak sphincter function, if this continues into adulthood, it is important to get an accurate diagnosis.
If your dog has accidents regardless of their emotional state, it could be incontinence, and you should consider the possibility that a medical condition or a decline in health may be the cause. 😢
We have now covered everything about excitement urination in dogs.
Do you have a dog that experiences excitement urination?
If it’s simply a result of emotional changes in a young puppy, that’s a relief. However, it’s important to carefully observe your dog’s condition to check for any signs that might suggest a potential medical issue. Doing so will help ensure a healthy life with your dog. 🥰
