To mark their territory, which be from the outside of your household or even just around the corners of your room is something that male dogs can't really avoid doing. They do the marking of their by peeing on that part so that they won't have the trouble finding it again.

Whatever choice you make, as long as you have thought about it well, then that will unquestionably be the right one for you.
