having all your males neutered may help, it usually does. we have 2 F chi's,
but a male shihtzu and a male mastiff. here recently the two males (which are
all in the house) have been competing like that for 'territory'. we had enough
and neutered the mastiff since the shihtzu is used as a stud, and atleast he's
stopped marking in the house. the intact shihtzu still pees everywhere, but
atleast the mastiff stopped.

have an almost one year pup which we
adopted from a tragic puppy mill. Luckily him and his brother's were
saved. We currently have him and a 3 year old Labradore male.. they
get along well but have recently begun to mark-re-mark territory.
It's come to the point where all of our daughters play equipment in
our yard has to be scrubbed daily. anyone else had trouble with Males
competing for territory this way? I know this Chi (long-short mix)
could be the best pet if cuddled and kept inside on our laps more..
but with a deployed Navy husbad, two daughters and one on the way I
can't find the time to spoil these dogs as they should be. We've been
thinking of finding a new home for the dogs (not happily but it's not
fair for them to lack attention).. we have a friend with a large
property who would love to have our lab.. but have no takers on our
Chi that we know. We haven't posted on any sites or papers.. thought
I would mention it here first. He is updated on shots (we've used so
many vets this past year it would be hard to locate all the records)
the only one he is due for is his 1 year rabies vaccine (he'll be 1
in Aug)
Anyways any info on the marking males or adoption options would be
great!
Thanks
