French Bulldog housebreaking

Question
Hello,

I have a 6 month old male frenchie.  He is for the most part house broken but sometimes he pees when he gets the urge or he is mad in the house with out going to the door first.  I need some help with getting him completely house broken.  I also can not leave water out for him all day because he drinks too much and throws up.  My vet does not think there is a problem.  I was wondering if you have ever heard of this before?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  

Answer
Frenchies are notoriously difficult to house train. If he's not neutered, he should be and that will stop a lot of this behavior.  The spite peeing is never going to stop.

I'm not sure taking his water away is a good idea, but you can pick it up in the evening around 6. He's throwing it up because the dish is too low. Raise it off the floor about 6 inches and that should solve that problem. He'll adjust his intake once he realizes it's going to stay with him.

Crating him may help but you're probably already using a crate or you would have killed him by now!
