Leg Cocking to wee

[TeaOneSugar]

DD would like to know when our puppy will start to cock his leg for a wee, any idea what the average is?

He's a six month old cocker spaniel.

We've only had one male dog before, a rescue who always squatted because he had bowed from legs, so it's a novelty.

Jas is 18 months old and still squats. I have a feeling he won't ever cock his leg.

Mine is a year old next month and has never cocked or squatted he just stretches himself out and goes. He did have a brief stage of going for a wee and then after he finished cocked his leg think he was a bit confused

He was not really a humper either, apart from a couple of collies then he was a tad obsessed.

Doesn't he get his tummy sprayed/squirted?

Not that I have noticed, he just manages to stretch and do the splits with his hind legs to avoid his tummy. Will have to have a closer look next time he goes to double check though

Ours sort of stretches and wees, rather than squatting like our bitch used to.

He keeps getting a sticky patch just in front of his willy, I'm hoping that's wee.

Yes it will be. You should shower that bit every day - will only need a few seconds once the sticky patch has been got rid of. It could cause him skin irritation if left.

thinking about it, our (neutered) dog cocks his leg when marking his scent out on walks, but when he's just in the garden he does the stretch-hover, lifting one leg about an inch off the ground.

I never thought about it before. really, how bored am I to be thinking about it now

he will never be a man

My little female I have had for 3.5 weeks is in season. I will be getting her spayed in 3 months time. She sniffs at all the cocked adverts for ages and when she likes it she squats at the bottom of it - and she seems to like lots of them. She's a right little hussy. But didn't at all. Wonder what her criteria is?
Where no other dogs have been, she squats with her right leg cocked sideways bent. Perhaps she can tell which ones have been neutered? Not enough testosterone in wee?
