[NAGDU] Male dog spraying himself & urine odor

[S L Johnson]

Hi,

Oh, I remember the problems with my first dog who was a male golden.  That 
crazy dog was always getting his front legs and paws wet, not to mention my 
shoes.  Since then, I have insisted on female dogs.

Janice, I had a male Golden who did this routinely which was how I started 
religiously taking off the harness for him to relieve. Yeah, ick.

About the only thing you can do is to wipe both legs with a wet paper towel.

That dogâ?Ts successor did lift his leg but he was small and short coupled 
and would often get urine on the inside of the leg heâ?Td lifted. Letâ?Ts 
not even talk about all the urine they get on their paws.

Welcome to male dogdum.
