My unneutered dog constantly pees in the house. How can I stop it?

Question

My dog was never fixed and continuously pees over the house and has for the past nine years. Our floors are ruined and the house sticks but he is our best friend. We don't know if we could handle this for another five years, but we don't know what to do because we love him deeply. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Male | unneutered | 5 lbs

I can understand being frustrated! Having a dog who urinates in the house constantly can be very difficult to live with. Unfortunately, since this has been a habit for him for the past nine years, it will be very difficult to break now. You could consider having Charlie wear a belly band (like a diaper for male dogs) in the house at all times, and make sure to take him out frequently and praise him for urinating outdoors. He may learn to "hold it" inside eventually if you work at it, but I doubt very much that he will ever be completely reliable.
