Dog Pooping in My Bed

September 2, 2011

Close up image at face level of a yellow labrador retriever laying on it's back on a bed with blue sheetsI have a 8 year old Chihuahua that has just started pooping in my bed at night. It is as if she sleeps so soundly she doesn't know that she does it. Why is she just now doing this and how do I stop it?

You should consider that her food may not agree with her. Perhaps try a new brand. You could feed her at a different time than you currently do, and be sure to walk her before bed. If this doesn't get the job done, I would see the Vet for a checkup.

I agree with Lizzyanny. When your dog is a puppy, you feed them puppy food, then adult food and now she's older., senior food. Or homemade for sensitive tummies. Lighten up on night time feeding also. Most important, see the vet.

I find that my dogs go to the toilet not long after their main meal, so I feed them their dinner at 4pm in the afternoon.

Why is my dog pooping in my bed? She's a 5 month old Chihuahua. She's litter boxed trained and when it's warm enough to go outside, she will.

But, it has been extremely cold out lately, so she hasn't been outside.

My dog has pooped on my bed on few occasions. How do I keep that from happening again? Why did that happen? She is a pit mix, rescue dog.

My wife and I sleep with the mattress on the floor at night. We have two separate single size mattresses combined (while waiting for our new home). My 4 month old Shih Tzu is potty trained. She pooped in her cage in the room or the pee pad, but recently, she started pooping on my wife's bed.

The moment I changed the bedsheet, she peed on it. Just this morning, I woke up in horror to see my wife covered in Pancake's poop, still sound asleep. She only does that on my wife's mattress and not mine. I don't think it's my food supply because I haven't change it for a while. Her cage is opened for her to do her business all the time, ever since she was potty trained, but why now? Any advice? Is it because she can't hold her bowels because she is only 4 months old? But she only did it wrongly on my wife's bed and not else where. When the mattress is lifted up, she will pee and poo in the cage. I need help here!

I have a Chihuahua, I have had him since he was a puppy, about 3 years now. I take him out to every morning and the kids take him out in the afternoon then I do it again at night. No matter how many times a day he goes out, if we leave a door open he will immediately jump on the bed and pee or poop.

It doesn't matter whose bed it is or what time it is. He could just be coming in from outside and will still do this. Any advise as to why or how can I stop it. I always keep my door closed, but my kids may not always remember to do so.

I have a 6 month old Siberian Husky and today she tried to poop on my bed/me. To start let me say that she had been let out this morning. She went out and went poop and did her usual thing. I was laying in bed with her trying to get motivation to get ready for work while the dog was looking out the window. My dog is pretty well potty trained and will at least start crying if she wants to go out and will often go by the doors to indicate that she wants to leave.

This morning she was making some weird sounds while looking out the window so I got up, took her out and then we went back to lay in bed. While we were laying there she tried to get off the bed, I watched her and then put her back up on the bed when I realized she was trying to chew on my shoes. After that we laid back down and she did her squat poop position on my bed, right by were my head was. She is also crate trained by the way and isn't allowed on the bed unless I am on it with her. This is not the first time that she has poop somewhere that clearly belongs to me (she tired to do this same thing in my lap in the car once).

I have two chihuahuas and they are always pooping under my bed. I have had to pull my bed out over and over again to clean it because i can't get under it.

I tried sprays, but they just won't stop.

I have a Lab she is 7. I have a big yard that she runs in. She gets walks every day and is house trained, but when I leave she poops on my bed. She didn't do it before, but she is now. I have tried putting her in a cage. but she get breaks out no matter what I do to it. I still come home to the same thing. I don't have a door on my room and I have tried putting a gate up, but it doesn't help she just jumps over it.

Some times I do tie her outside, but if it's raining, snowing, or it's hot or cold out I don't want her to be out in it. I have even tried to put her in a room with a door, but that also doesn't work. She just breaks the door. I'm not sure what else to do.

I understand the pain you are going through and it is horrible when this one happens. I had to break my puppy of this and it was not so easy. When the dog did pee and poop on the bed I moved the cloes to the outside and put the dog there with the soiled clothes. The next morning I would put an extra sheet over the top of my bed and spray the sheet with pure vinegar mixed with some lime juice.

The dog hates this smell and they do not pee or poop around it. It took me a few days to break the dog but it did work. Moving the soiled clothes outside and putting the dog next to them teaches them that is where they need to go to the toilet and not on your bed. Also keep your bedroom door closed when you are not in the room and if you leave the room make sure the dog is not in the room.

It sounds like your dog may be anxious. Besides daily training things that lower his anxiety may help. Be sure he gets daily exercise. If you enjoy it most dogs love agility training. Otherwise a walk is great. Pay attention to tension in your household. We get used to it but pets can be on edge because of it.

Do what your can to lower it. Make sure your dog has safe chew toys to keep him busy. It is always good to start with a Vet visit to rule out any physical issues. If If these efforts and some careful training dont help you can see your Vet for medicine that lowers anxiety levels.

My dog has pooped in my husband's bed for two days in a row after he leaves to go to work. I currently sleep in the nursery with our son so I don't realize he's done it until I get up to take him out in the morning. My husband works graveyard shift and our dog normally sleeps through the night and goes to the bathroom in the morning. It's been the same way for a while now and it has been working. Well yesterday and today he has pooped in my husband's bed. He has never done this before so I'm lost. He's 12 years old so he knows better!

Our son is 14 months old so he's not new to him, but I'm starting to get the feeling our dog is upset about something. Our baby has been getting a lot of attention lately because of his age and milestones he's reaching. The dog doesn't seem happy about it.

I have a 2 1/2 year old Morky. She is trained to go on a wee wee pad because she is allergic to grass. All of a sudden she has been pooping on my bed and her own bed for the last 3 days. She's never alone because I'm disabled and I take her everywhere with me. She is an emotional support dog. Can anyone help me to why this is happening? She went to the groomer last week. She was fine before that. Please help.

Thank you.
