Dog urination and breeding

Question
I have a 2 year old standard poodle he is a stud. When i got him at 1 year old he seemed abused he wouldn't stand up just laid on the ground. Now i have 2 problems one is he wont stop trying to breed my cat and he is always following me around smelling at me. He also bites at me like they do at fleas and whines. I was told he was trying to be dominate over me but if i scold him he will instantly pee. If you try to get him off furniture he will pee. If you are playing with him he will pee. So then i was told he was being submissive. He drags my clothes everywhere. If i leave the house even if someone else is here he will lay at the door till i get back. I just don't know what to do anymore.

Answer
Cats usually handle their issues with dogs quite well, especially if they have their claws, so it is a good idea to let the cat hand that.

Second, it is never recommended to breed any dog who has behavioral issues. Behavioral issues as well as physical appearance can be passed from generation to generation. A dog that is imperfect in any way should never be bred. It is bad for the breed and for the entire species and only serves to fill up animal shelters.

As to your other issues, I suggest you get your dog a crate and train him to it.

A dog that is properly crate trained will see his crate as a haven and this can help an anxious dog feel more secure. Also, scolding does no good. Anything beyond a firm "no" is just gibberish that may cause him to become excited but doesn't really send a message. Either redirect his attention or ignore him.

You need to ignore him if he's behaving toward you in a way that you find unacceptable until he is behaving properly. Don't just ignore the behavior, ignore him. Pretend he doesn't exist, put your hands in your pockets, look up at the ceiling and withhold anything that can be perceived as attention until he is behaving properly. This may lead to barking, whining and obnoxious frantic behavior but don't give in till he is behaving properly. He will soon learn that biting, barking, whining & etc. will get him ignored, not the attention he craves and will do what gives him that attention reward instead.

You must also make sure he knows at least a few tricks to give him alternative behaviors to those things you don't want him to do. Instead of scolding him for misbehaving, give him an alternative behavior, withhold whatever reward is on hand until he's performed the behavior and then praise him or give him some other reward for doing that. This will teach him what he should be doing which is a lot more empowering than just learning what one shouldn't be doing which is depressing and leads to feelings of hopelessness and frustration. If you empower him with information about how you want him to behave, he'll be more confident and his peeing issues will fade. Assuming of course they are not based on anything physical- so be sure to have your vet check him out.
