boy/girl potty training - Page 1

is it just me or are males WAY easier to potty train...........my male was trained @ 3 months, female was still haveing few mishaps til 5-6 months............and is it normal for her to excitment dribble.......he doesnt

I have not noticed a difference in sex when house training. I also have never has an excited or submissive pisser. Now if we were talking cocker spaniels that a different story all together!
I do find that as pups grow they sometimes lose some muscle control during a growth spurt. And it takes a few days fo the newly expanded muscles to redevelop normal tone. I don't stress potty training too much and all my dogs are very reliable in no time flat.

mommy works all day and when she comes home, i either have to have her call me so i can walk my girl, or sprinkle sprinkle.........she doesnt do it for me, as i am with her all day, i can come and go without the pee, now the whining when i leave is our work now lol....and male has no issues, though hes 3 months younger

This is just my experience, and I haven't known that many cases anyway;
but I guess out of all the pups I have known (inc GSD),  there have been
marginally more bitches than dogs that had the 'excited weeing' problem.
But the gender difference doesn't seem to be hugely in favour of one or
the other.   Hope Tosca does grow out of it eventually, for the sake of your
flooring if nothing else !  She probably will.  Does your wife pay a lot of
attention to her whenever they have been apart ?  She could try the No
look, No touch, No speak  thing when she first gets home ?


Edited to add:  on reflection, actually I am surprised she never
does it with you, since you spend so much time together you
would think she might react more, after the occasions you go
out without her.  

yeah i make wifey do that now and it works.....as far as wit me, im wit her 24 hrs a day ecept when i go to stores and couple hrs on the weekend so like i said we have other problems, like if were anywhere other than in MY house and i leave, its crazy city for her i cant leave her in the car @ stores, i can empty trash when wifey is takeing her out (trash is acouple buidings over) we workin on it though

I don't it's a gender thing.
