My male dog pees on my female dog outside. How do I stop him?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Miniature Pinscher | Male | neutered | 25 lbs

My male dog always urinates on my female dog, only outside though. They have been siblings for at least 5 years now so they are familiar with each other. They are both spayed and neutered as well. How can I get him to stop this?

They may have a continuous disagreement over who is boss. Your male dog may urinate in an attempt to establish dominance over the other. He also may be marking his "territory", i.e. marking her as "his"
