New Puppy

Meet Franklin! he’s a 6.5 month old Yorkie! My 3 year old Shichon is so happy to be a big brother! It’s been a few years since by guy was a puppy and i’ve only had 1 at a time. How do I get this little guy to stop marking EVERYWHERE. I already am on a wait list for him to get fixed. A coworker of mine recommended a belly band? anyone have luck with these or any other suggestions?

Thank you from Teddy and Franklin in advance ❤️

..marking territory is what dogs do..

..my best sugg is to encourage to mark outside via frequent outside trips, and Def use a strong deodorizer (like Lysol?) to cleanse & make the spots yours and not the pup's..

..it takes time, so be patient..but it's totally possible, so be patient some more..
