I have a two-year-old male Cocker Spaniel that was nutured when he was six months old. He is a GREAT little guy but he has this problem with urinating on my girlfriend’s bed and now he has taken up with no avail urinating on my bed. He also has problems at night where he will get up, defecate, urinate in the kitchen, and then come back to bed. I tried shutting my door to keep him in the bedroom but he also goes in there. Sometimes he will scratch at the bedroom door to be let out to go. I will get up, walk him to the front door, and let him out to do his thing and then he comes back in and we head off the bed again. Now he doses not even brother to scratch he just gets up and goes in the bedroom. He always has to go around the 3Am to 5Am hours. We leave our front door open at all times for the dogs to go outside to the bathroom and he dose go outside during the day but at night if he is the only one up he heads straight for the kitchen or my bedroom. He know what he is doing is wrong because we have disciplined him by sending him outside from us and the other dogs and I have keep him out of my room during the day as this I have heard is a privilege to sleep and play in the bedroom. We started at 15 minutes outside and we have increased up to an hour now. I have not actually found him in the act but just a few seconds after where he smells where he went on the bed. He knows what he has done is wrong (the bed or the kitchen) and when we say who went to the bathroom on the bed or kitchen the other dogs give him up right away and he scolds himself my running outside and sitting down. He know what he is doing is wrong. He goes outside all the time during the day. I am at a lost at trying to figure out this little guy!!

we had a similar problem with one of our dogs peeing on our couches at night. so we locked him in a crate during the night, that helped. he would whine for about an hour when we put him in their...so we stuck some toys in to keep him 'company'. good luck
