My puppy, who is 14 month old medium mixed breed dog, likes to pee in the
lower corner of my mattress. I thought at first she did it because the
mattress was on the floor and since i had gotten it from my mother that she
smelled my mothers dogs on it. Well about a month ago i got a brand new
mattress box spring and frame so its no longer laying on the ground and the
other day i found where she'd pee'd on my brand new sheets and mattress. I
can't seem to ever catch her doing it i just get in bed and theres this big
wet spot. Does anyone have any idea on why she's doing this or how i can
get her to stop. I try to keep my bedroom shut when i'm not around but
sometimes i forget i'm not perfect any advice would be welcomed other then
that she's a perfect puppy

First, it's always a good idea to rule out medical problems by
taking her to the vet. Sometimes lapses in house training, even if
we think they might have a logical explanation, are caused by
physical problems (e.g. a UTI).

Second, don't let her do that. Really. There are no magic
solutions. The *only* way to stop the behavior is to make sure the
dog is not allowed unsupervised access to the bedroom. Bar her from
accessing the bedroom when you cannot supervise her, watch her
carefully so that she cannot sneak away and have accidents, and
begin re-house training her, starting over from scratch.

Also, make sure you clean up the area where she's peed with a good
enzymatic cleaner. That will remove the scent well enough that your
dog cannot smell it, and will hopefully make her less likely to want
to pee in the same spot again.

my bed seems to be the only place that she uses the bathroom on. She
doesn't do it anywhere else in the house.

Well, I suppose you'll just have to continue allowing her to do pee on
your bed, then. Good luck with that!

just take her to my bedroom and let her **** on the bed. Save me a lot of

asking anyone in here advice.

There is really only one way to solve your problem, and you were given
advice on how to go about it the *first* time you posted. Since you
obviously do not intend to use the advice you were already given, there
is not a whole lot anyone here can do for you. Not that you'd take
their advice if there was.

Could it be that your dog was sleeping on the bed and accidentally peed?
My shepherd left a wet spot on her blanket while sleeping. She actually
did it two or three times over a two day period and because I was in the
room watching TV (evening time), I know she was sleeping and that it was
accidental. She had an episode of the same thing several months
earlier. She is 3.5 years of age.
