    Is it normal for a female dog to pee every few minutes like a male dog would pee up a post.
    I have had female dogs before and none of them marked this way.
    Willow has just turned 1 year old and is not spayed.

    I have never owned a bitch but it is apparently common for bitches especially if they haven’t been spayed or are in season to mark.

    Cooper marks as much as any Male dog I have been around. Tilly also marked, but not as much as Cooper. I've seen a few female dogs that lifted their leg like a Male.

    Yes, my spayed bitch Meg does it. She even lifts a leg - so funny to see.

    My 2 female springers wasn't that interested in other dogs and never marked.
    Willow loves other dogs she marks more closer to home we get.
