how to get a dog to pee in a cup

a week ago
the vet handed me this
a cup
and asked me to get urine from him
maik.
my first thought was
"um, so how do i do this exactly?"
and
thanks to facebook
and 
having a hubby 
who is a dog handler
i got my answer
a modified coat hanger
thank goodness i still had a wire hanger
we are in the process of eliminating them!

so this morning
my wonderful hubby
said,
"i will get the urine, babe.
he's my dog."
so 
he set out 
to get urine!
see maik's tail?
maik wasn't going to have anything to do with this.

sorry for the blurriness
i was following kenneth and maik
maik was going at a very quick speed.
he still wasn't going to have anything 
to do with this whole pee in a cup thing

long story short
notice kenneth on his phone
well 
he really needed to go to work
so 
i was the lucky one to get the urine
but
it wasn't that bad
see 
maik and i
have a very different relationship
than
him and kenneth
and 
he doesn't run from me.
within a minute
of 
asking maik 
to 
"take a break"
that's what is his cue to go potty
ta-da!
 i got urine!
woo-hoo!
so 
now you know folks
should your vet ever hand you a cup
use a hanger
and 
you too 
can get a urine sample!

thank
you mr. jones for all your help!

  1. bahahaha, this would have been a site to see! Good thing you have a chain link fence so all of your neighbors can watch and learn how to collect urine from their dogs if need be.
