jacky drinking toby's urine all the time Can't Post

hi, i'm new to this forum, and am curious to find out why my dog jacky drinks my other dog, Toby's urine! it's so gross and how do i stop him?

Jacky is a new addition to the family.. he came to our house one day and didn't want to go away so we took him in. he was a stray dog. surprisingly, both dogs got along fine, but i think Toby is the top dog bcos they will only fight when it comes to feeding time and i have to tie Toby up first b4 dinner time, if not Jacky will not eat his food cos toby will go to jacky's bowl and eat his.

anyway, if toby urinates, jacky will be waiting to lick his urine( like he really enjoys it, OMG), then he will cover the urine with his own urine. is there a way to stop this problem? normally i will hold jacky back and say No, but he will still go and do it later..

sometimes it is hard to find out the definite reasons for dog eating poo or drinking pee. but 1 of the explanations is they lack of something in their body & hence the action. May I know what kind of dog food u r feeding? Smile

It would be wiseto get Jacky neutered, I feel that Jacky licks Toby's urine and then pees on the same spot, he is trying to clean up Toby's scent and place his on it. I think the problem is more behaviour related rather than food related.

Here are a few websites that have people sharing a similar problem with you:
