Today, I took the dog for a 45 minute walk/jog. She sniffed everything on the ground like she always does. She marked her territory twice, then we finally got home. As soon as I took her off the leash inside, she ran to the kitchen and took a dump right on the kitchen mat. FML

She was marking her territory. Again. Pissing or ******** in the house is just another way for your dog to tell you that she's the alpha and you're not. As #3 said, marking is unusual in bitches unless they're dominants. She most likely considers you a pack member of lower rank. So start showing her who's boss, or she'll be ******** elsewhere in the house to assert her status. Stop acting like a lesser pack member. Use a strong, assertive voice when correcting your dog. Do not lower yourself to her height when greeting her (bend down if necessary, but do not crouch to her eye level). If necessary, gently grab her upper jaw or nose to administer discipline (in a wild pack, greeting involves the more submissive canine approaching on the belly and reaching up to lick the leader's lower jaw, so handling your dog's lower jaw could be taken as a sign of submission to her alpha status). If assertiveness is not working, turn your back and ignore her until she corrects her behavior (she will eventually realize she has done something wrong and run to your front side to regain your attention, so keep turning your back on her until she crouches and whines/rolls over to show her belly/displays other apologetic behavior). Seriously. Take charge, or you'll be her bitch.

A dominant bitch will actually mark. It's more prominent in males for sure, but not unheard of for bitches. Although if she never does it and then suddenly starts, it could actually be a urinary tract infection.

If the dog is that excited, it's not having its needs fulfilled. Loving the dog just doesn't make up for not making sure your dog is stable.

I would have shot that dam dog right their on the couch

You people spouting this Cesar Millan alpha shit are insane. Dogs don't shit in the house because you're not the alpha. In fact, dominance theories have been disproved hundreds of times. Even if there was even a tiny bit of truth to them, why the **** would a dog shit in the house to prove it's dominant? ******** has nothing to do with marking territory. A dog ***** in the house because it's not fully house trained. Back to house training 101. OP, for the love of dogs don't follow any of this correction/making a submissive dog/insaneinsaneinsane advice.

One of my dogs does that when it's cold out, she hates cold weather so she quickly pees, then just stands at the door and barks, then when she comes in she poops in the house. After a day or two of being either outside or spending some quality time in her crate, she tends to remember that the house is not a toilet. Although if you've just run with the dog you might have needed to give here a couple minutes to poop after she stopped, my dogs often have to poo after a run.
