My rescue dog peed on my down comforter

Clearly, he hates you.

Just like everyone else does.

Because you mislabel him. He’s not a “rescue dog.” He’s a dog who happens to have been temporarily unhoused.

He didn't even look guilty when he did it!

Is he a rescue dog?

Possible urinary tract infection, depending on the breed.

Dogs do not possess secondary emotions such as guilt or shame.

Oh, you are soooooooooo wrong about that.

Gut the ungrateful lil fucker.

I have a hack for that.

R6 you are so wrong. I’ll post a video in a sec...

Consider yourself lucky. My rescue dog is menstruating all over the house, and we can't get her spayed until June because so many people are adopting animals that there is a backlog for veterinary services.

Good! I’m glad he did! Serves your ass right!

Well, I shit on the White House carpet!

R6. Here...

I kept a friend's Australian Shepherd for a weekend and that little bitch peed on my bedding while looking me straight in the eye.

A number of reasons. A UT infection, more often seen in females, but males can get them too. If the dog is recently in your house, he could be marking the room. If that's the reason, he feels comfortable with you and wants to make the place his. He could be nervous. One of my dogs does that when I come home after being away for a while -- pees on the stone floor in the entryway.

Whatever you do, pay attention if it happens again and try to see what clues you can see.

He just went to the vet today for his annual exam and bloodwork so I doubt he has an infection. I thought dogs don't pee where they sleep? He sleeps on that comforter! He just looked at me and smiled after he did it.

Yes, he's a rescue dog.

Sounds like rescue dog is gonna need a rescue dog after I serve him his whoopass for lunch!

Rescue dogs are rejects for a reason.

If he's old, dementia has just started and he will shit and piss all over. Give him Karsivan or Aktivait to slow down the deterioration.

R20 this isn’t about the president!

Clearly, it's a poor quality comforter

or

the duvet cover is of poor quality

Are you a bottom? Do you baby him? Do you feed him before you eat? Does he walk you and go in the door first? Is he sleeping in your bed? It could be dominance confusion. Dogs feel secure when they are led. Show him that you're the boss.

Or it could be the thread count, it's one or the other.

He has beef with you.

My rescue would jump up on the guest bed when my father would visit and shit on the pillow because he didn’t like him. It was quite deliberate.

Never in my entire life did I ever have a cat or dog that pissed or shit in my house . Nor would I. One and done..

It's a side-effect of getting the COVID vaccine. I'm sure of it.

Amazon has a wide selection of affordable pet cremation urns

Maybe the dog thought you were messing with his spot and wanted to mark it again to make sure you didn't think it was yours.

Now I have to take it to the dry cleaner (the comforter). It's still sitting on the floor, and he keeps sniffing it. I did douse the stain with Resolve. He never pees inside. I think he really had to go... but why go on something soft and fluffy? He's only two... probably. I'm not sure, because as I said, he's a rescue dog.
