If his bladder is not strong enough or it is a problem, then why are you scolding the dog?
Sounds like maybe you need to go back and do housetraining 101 again?.
Your right, I should be telling him how happy I am with him and start doing it with him, lol. If I dont let him know that I am unhappy with him when he does that how will he ever learn that it is a habit that should stop?
Excitement peeing is not deliberate. Neither is submissive peeing.
Scolding can go two ways: make it worse, or have no effect. Making it worse is more likely.
Geesh, I missed this one....if you want to pee on the floor be my guest, the point is, YOU know it is wrong and your pup does NOT.
You have been given advice and you can take it or leave it. If you choose to leave it, I feel sorry for your pup.

No, I am afraid he does not. He may be submissively leaving because he is anticipating the verbal scolding but I really do not think he is associating your scolding with peeing on the floor.

Doesnt he know that he is doing something wrong because right after he does it he always "acts ashamed" for lack of a better way to put it.
As Carol says, dogs can easily learn that at a certain time they will be subjected to random and mysterious corrections (in their eyes). That doesn't mean that they connect the involuntary urination with it.
And again, it's involuntary.
Shame is not something a dog feels. Anxiety, yes.
Really -- for submissive or excitement peeing, the thing to do is avoid the situations that trigger it.
I have heard of a few dogs who do not outgrow it completely, but I can tell you that he almost certainly will, and that the less attention paid to it (or to him when the trigger situations arise), the faster he will outgrow it.
If he has a UTI, that can be diagnosed easily by dropping off a sample at the vet's.
No, I am afraid he does not. He may be submissively leaving because he is anticipating the verbal scolding but I really do not think he is associating your scolding with peeing on the floor.

Ok forgive my ignorance but "He may be submissively leaving because he is anticipating the verbal scolding" that is coming for something he doesnt know he did, although he only does it after his accident. I pretty sure he knows what he is doing wrong, just dont tink he can help it. I will try to prevent the triggers for awhile and see how that goes. Thanks for the advice.
Don't forget that dogs speak body language VERY fluently. Your dog probably knows your mad before you do. Follow all the advice you have gotton and I'm sure this will resolve itself as fast as possible. Good luck.
