1yr old yellow labrador

Question
My 1 yr old dog male not neutered dog , doesnt enter the kennel we made for him we have tried baiting him with food but now he has wised up to it too and one more thing what the usual age a dog lifts his leg to pee

Answer
The key to most behavior problems is approaching things using the dog's natural instincts. Dogs see all the people and dogs in the household as a pack with each having their own rank in the pack and a top dog. Life is much easier if the 2 legged pack members outrank the 4 legged ones. You can learn to play the role of top dog by reading some books or going to a good obedience class. A good obedience class or book is about you being top dog, not about rewarding standard commands with a treat. Start at http://www.dogsbestfriend.com/ For more on being top dog, see http://www.dogbreedinfo.com./topdogrules.htm

You may not have obedience classes available.  Let me suggest some books.

Many male dogs begin lifting their leg at about a year.  Some suggest it is a learned thing, they need to see other males doing it.
