my 2 year old intact male hound mix will pee in the bathroom if he happens to walk in while my husband is peeing as well.
Im not sure if this is scent marking or if Loki thinks he is using the bathroom just like his person, and in what must be a designated potty spot.
needless to say the dog is not allowed in the bathrooms at our house!
He has also marked the cats, which i caught him doing and corrected firmly because to me that was a dominance thing and the cats are above the dogs in our pack. (for their own safety)

I gotta say, my first reaction to the title of your thread was "Wouldn't it be easier to mark with a clicker or a verbal marker?"
This post kind of cracks me up, not sure what it has to do with dog training, or why any of us are interested enough to take it to 2 pages, but reading about dogs peeing on things is rather amusing.

Maybe someone will do some more pee experiments and let us know the results.
Count me out!

I like the different species answer myself.
Hey Ted, you could have some more fun with this though. If thats possible, what with all the mark-larky going on around here.
What if you were to pee before and ahead of the dogs? What if you marked over theirs, do they remark on the spot when on the way back or the next day? Could you eventually stop them from peeing on every tree on your path by over time doing so yourself?
The book you are thinking of is "Never Cry Wolf" by Farley Mowat. Mowat is a Canadian wildlife researcher who also writes hilarious books of his true adventures. He didn't live in Alaska though, it was in the Canadian arctic. (I believe the location was in what is now Nunavut). Close!
My dog is named Farley, after Mr. Mowat
Due to my job, I pee out in the wilderness pretty much daily. Farely is a 'big time' marker, but he is not interested in my pee at all.
My collegue's dog seems to have a thing for rolling in human poo however
Me thinks that people are neither competition, nor prey....
Imagine if they did mark human pee....I know some boys that would have to work on their aim to prevent some indoor accidents
