Male chins spraying????

mishellyshel · Aug 21, 2009

I posted a question earlier about my chin stitch making this strange sound, sounds like a little kitten cry or baby bird, well this morning he did something strange but i must have stopped him in the middle, but when i came home he did it.
he actually stood up on his hind legs, jumped a few steps forward and peed, kinda like he was spraying me. He has never done this before!
and my other two boys have never done it or even made the position like the would.
has anyone else experience this??

with the strange sound and now spraying me I am wondering if everything is ok??

Yup, boys spray too, just not as well or with accuracy like females do.

Whoa! I have never seen a boy spray! I didn't think they could. I guess you learn something new every day. I guess I'll have to watch out for cranky boys, too.

I have seen 2 of my 4 boys "spray". Since they are boys they more dribble than spray though. lol.

I have a male who sprays- about 2-3 inches. It's aggression more than defensive in his case, although attack first, sort them out later has been his attitude.

Thanks for the info, at least I wasnt imagining. Any idea why they would suddenly start doing this? I have had stitch for about 8 months and he has never done that before.

Now that I am taking Richie out 3 x daily and I moved Zucca upstairs, he has started. Is it jealousy? Or is he kinda just pissed at me (literally!).

At least I am not alone. He had good aim, it got on my hand!!!
