Dog Pooping in My Bed

I have 3 dogs. Two I've had for four years, and one I've had for 11 years. My neutered dog has never used relieved himself in the house in the 4 years I've had him. Friday when I came home from work and he had peed on my bed. Monday I came home from work, and he had pooped on my bed. Why is this happening and how can I correct it?

Hello, Please take your baby to his Veterinarian for am exam. There might be a medical issue that is causing this to happen.

The easiest solution is to shut the bedroom door or put a gate across it to keep animals off the bed while you're gone. No fun working all day and then coming home to soiled bedding needing changed and a mattress needing scrubbed.

Have you considered covering your mattress with plastic to keep it from being ruined? Or buy one of those large plastic liner pads and apread over the top of the bed to keep the bed dry and cleaner if you don't like the first option.

Dear Amy you might look at something that might have up set your dog. We had a cat that always used the litter box until my son got married his new wife didn't like the cat and threw things at her. The cat then started peeing on the rug in her bathroom. But when shut out of her area the cat always used the litter box. Cats and dogs can be vengeful.

Dog Is Pooping in Owner's Bed at Night

I have a 8 year old Chihuahua that has just started pooping in my bed at night. It is as if she sleeps so soundly she doesn't know that she does it. Why is she just now doing this and how do I stop it?

I find that my dogs go to the toilet not long after their main meal, so I feed them their dinner at 4pm in the afternoon.

My dogs are crate trained and poop outside. I've noticed that when I'm not showing her "the love" or if she was a bad girl, she will come in and poop on the bed as if to say "I'll show you." (10/23/2008)

I can not believe all the feedback. I also have a Min-Pin, who started pooping in my bed. When he was "supposed" to be sleeping, at least I was. I live in Michigan and it has been very cold here, he also hates snow. I have been cutting down on his food in the evening and it seems to help. Thank god, no one wants to sleep with poop.

Put up a baby gate to your bedroom to keep your dog out of that room during the day. It works. (07/03/2009)

I have two chihuahuas and they are always pooping under my bed. I have had to pull my bed out over and over again to clean it because i can't get under it. I tried sprays, but they just won't stop.


Why is my dog pooping in my bed? She's a 5 month old Chihuahua. She's litter boxed trained and when it's warm enough to go outside, she will. But, it has been extremely cold out lately, so she hasn't been outside.
