I was wondering what might happen next AtC.... after the first time he did have to wee against every slightly higher blade of grass on the path we were on! His weight is pretty stable now so I think he has done most of his growing so if a snip is needed that will be ok. 
I had to stop on my canal walk and visit the loos, I put him in a sit stay and left him... when I came back he hadn't moved.... hurrah for obedience training.

Wow! That's impressive obedience. Ernie has been cocking his leg for a while. He definitely wants to sniff, then maybe pee on, lots of things. We haven't had much humping but have had a couple of awkward marking incidents.

"awkward marking incidents"... this is my first male dog for a million years so I really don't know what to expect... would you like to enlighten us or were they too awkward to recount hp?

To be fair I knew he wouldn't leave me but I didn't expect him to be routed to the spot, probably shock and will never happen again.

It is still brilliant!
But I must say I'm always astounded by owners who seem to think their GSD will 'run off' if let off lead. GSDs are just not running off dogs!
Now a beagle......

We stayed at a hotel in February. It was a dog friendly hotel but I'm not sure they appreciated Ernie marking the umbrella stand just inside the entrance. To say I was on edge for the rest of our stay is an understatement.

My sister's first Lab, Sam, disgraced himself when my brother-in-law was the doctor in attendance at a local point-to-point.
The big-wig farmer's wife's sheepskin coat, casually draped over a fence or something, was never the same again

Charlie started marking indoors wherever we went - the vets, the groomers, my friend's curtains...as well as having about a million wees on our regular walks. It was his randiness that was the bigger problem though, he was particularly attracted to the leg of anyone sitting.
I can honestly say, hand on heart, that he's not marked indoors once since being "done" and the humping is rare and half hearted
