    hi folks…has anyone noticed that after their boy basenji is neutered he has a problem with controlling his pee? felakuti is peeing now when he gets excited or in the morning he has trouble controlling it until he goes outside. he was neutered a week and a half ago.

    Hi there…could it be the meds that he's on for the neuter?? I know it took my boy a while to get the potty training down. And he's usually our dog that needs to be let out multiple times a day for a pee break. Our girl is different she can hold it for hours on end it seems.

    Keep trying to work with him it could just be an adjustment issue.

    I have never had a problem with boys after being neutered… but since it has only been a week and 1/2 could be that he is still healing....

    But again, I have never had that problem. If it continues I would certainly talk to your Vet..,

    @alibobo Echoing what Sally (and Liz McCargo) has suggested re: not spaying/neutering, at least at this young age. There's a very insightful and thoroughly informative booklet by the "Puppy Culture" founder on the subject. It is chockful of the latest scientific/medical/genetic research and also takes into consideration the social "pressure" of neutering/spaying one's pet. (BF should read a few pages if he prefers facts to oft repeated false tales) https://my.puppyculture.co.uk/resources/flipbook/spay-neuter-booklet/ Whether to neuter/spay is an important decision and so is its timing should you decide to have the operation.

    @Chealsie508: In a way I feel pressured to do it and in all reality, I am comfortable waiting until 14 months. I certainly wouldn't have your dog neutered because someone else thinks you should…I agree with eeeefarm on this. Do what you feel comfortable with, and it appears that you feel more comfortable waiting.

    Yeah, Jazzy's mom… it's okay, I guess I was being a dope about that! Sometimes I get all flustered about an issue and don't quite see the irony in things... no apology needed.

    @etzbseder: While we're at this, when they are neutered, how long do you have to keep them from licking? Can they lick in 4 days? or do you have to wait like 7-8 or what? Not till the incision is well on the way to be healed (which would mean the incision is closed..)…. 4 days is not long enough... IMO

    Totally unrelated. Jabari, I can't tell you how it warms my heart to hear "aloha" and "mahalo". Oh warm and fuzzies :) My family is still on Maui as my little sis is only in high school. Our Riley is getting the big snip in probably about 10 days. Poor little guy. I think it's the non-laser kind. We haven't had a comprehensive exam w/ the new vet yet but she comes highly recommended from a breeder out here. I just wish she accepted AKC's comped vet visit certificate you get for registering :/
