got one that does the same thing, he actually pisses in the entrance of his house, and hell piss in his food bowl after he eats.....i just chalk it up to retardation! i dont think these dogs rationalize, so far ive seen mine eat shit, lay and sleep in theyre shit (in crate), eat other dogs shit and piss in theyre food bowls & sleeping quarters......................what else can it be other than mental retardation?? id hate to use the duragatory term "shit eater", but damn if the shoe fits.......
