Does nuetering help with potty training a toy breed dog?

My 1 year old Pomeranian has been tinkling in small amounts on the edges of the kitchen floor instead of on his dog potty. I think he’s "marking". Does this stop if he gets nuetered?

Yes, neutering does sometimes help. It is also a matter of training. If he continues after you neuter him you could try purchasing belly bands, made especially for small dogs.

    Yes, it will help if he’s marking his territory.

    My wife has had several toy breeds and this did not help when we had then fixed . Sorry to say but they are very hard to train . Everybody usually just says ohh look peewee just had a accident ( what a pain ) you might ask your vet for helpful thoughts on this
