I am writing about Blossom's sudden marking in the house as she is in heat. So I woke up this morning with what I feel is the answer and want your opinion. Usually when I wake up with something on my mind, an answer or possible answer, it is usually a result of my unconscious mind having worked on it during sleep. What do you think? So she had been in heat for maybe a week or a little less with no marking inside whatsoever. She started to pee in the house the same day the trainer was here (like an hour later)and has done it daily since then in the same spot and even the same time of day. The trainer gave her a ball and Blossom took it into the foyer area of my house to tear it apart. This is where she is peeing. The ball looked well worn to say the least and I am sure with a lot of male scent on it from his own dog or other dogs he works with. So I am thinking the reason is that ball (which was thrown away in the outside garbage soon as the ball was destroyed when the trainer left). But I am wondering if that is the reason she is peeing there. She is doing it at the same time she was playing with the ball and in the same place in the house. I will ask the trainer to bring NO balls into the house that he has used with other dogs. I am thinking with certainty this IS the reason because it came from my subconscious mind SOON AS I OPENED MY EYES this morning. Now the question is how do I rid her of that memory or the scent. I have used enzymes on the spot.
