How many times should my dog pee when I take him for a walk?

When I take my dog for a walk, he seems to pee 20 times. He gives a sniff and then pees on practically everything. He's fine in the house and never has accidents. Should I be concerned? Is what he's doing normal?

1 Answer

Answer :

Dogs seem to have an endless stream of urine when out walking. If the color is normal and the dog is healthy otherwise, I wouldn't be concerned. Dogs want to leave their scent in lots of places, marking territory, letting everyone else know they were there or covering the scent of another dog with their own.
