I think we already went through a "male marking" thread on here.  But, I guess 
it has come up again.  You can't really say that a male dog will mark no matter 
if they are neutered or not.  It depends on the dog.  I have a neutered male 
Aussie who will mark outside and on walks.  He will also mark in other people's 
homes sometimes, depending what dogs they have there (male/female/fixed/not 
fixed).  He will mark for male or female, neutered or unneutered.  But....he 
NEVER marks in my home, even when my 2 intact females are in heat.  I don't 
think it matters whether a male dog lives with a male or female, fixed or 
unfixed.  From my experience, I believe it depends on the male dog himself and 
what habits he has learned.  Males don't only mark for female dogs.  They mark 
for other reasons as well.  More often than not, a male and female (neutered 
and spayed) can live together in harmony with no marking, ect.

Neutering won't stop it

      Yes, but she said she has no intentions on breeding, so I would assume 
she would get her female spayed.  And I assume her male is fixed, too.  Inside 
marking is unlikely if both dogs are fixed.

are many, many out there needing homes.  As far as male vs. female, it all 
depends on your dog.  Two males can get along great but males and females tend 
to get along better, IMO.

Hello, I have a male Chihuahua that will be 2 years old in June who is 
the apple of my eye :). My husband and I are thinking about getting 
another dog to keep him company when we are not home. My husband wants 
to get a different type of dog. Does anyone have any recommendation as 
to what type of dog to get and if getting a male or a female would be 
better. We have no intentions on breeding.
