Question
our boston terrier Lola is 1 year old and potty trained. However, when we go to pick her up she pees, or when we come home and she's running around our feet,  she pees. (enough to wipe up with a paper towel) What do we do to stop this? Kris

Answer
Most likely you wont.  Its called submissive urination and she is so excited to see you she pees.  Your best bet is to not make a huge production of comming home, then take her outside and then make her go potty.

you may also want to speak to a dog trainer to see how they would solve this problem too.
