My Maltese male hikes his leg on everything

golotomer @golotomer (68) • United States 20 Dec 06

I'm having a terrible time potty training my male Maltese. He hikes his leg on everything even as he is going out the door to the outdoors. I can't seem to get through to this guy! Are all male dogs this difficult?
