ok...sometimes it does..with females that can usually spark a peeing in the bed issue when they try to assert dominance...

i would try to set up a pattern of behavior when you go to leave...
i always say the same things, give mine a treat & then go...if they get crated do it. very calm, business like no excitement, no quibbling nothing..they don't get to make a choice in the decision.

if you haven't been doing the nothing in life is free training i would start that (want a treat, sit. want to go out, sit. want your dinner, sit or lay down, etc. this will remind him that you are the large & in charge one

nothing new..every pet owner goes thru it...every mom goes thru it...we all have to test those boundaries...it's part of growing up...
