Aim, mostly. Urination for dogs is not simply a matter of getting rid of excess fluid. They use it to establish their scent within a territory.

It's to do with scent marking their territory. The further up the tree they get the bigger and therefore more poweful they appear to be to subsequent 'investigating' dogs.

Another answer:It varies, but most male dogs start lifting their leg to pee when they're about a year old, as their instinct to establish territorial dominance kicks in.

Will mopping a laminate floor with vinegar stop a dog from urinating on it?

No, using vinegar on a laminate floor will not stop a dog from urinating on it. It's important to address the underlying reason why the dog is urinating inside, such as marking territory, anxiety, or a medical issue, to effectively address the behavior. Regular cleaning with an enzymatic cleaner designed to eliminate pet odors can help discourage repeat accidents.

How do you stop my male Rottweiler from peeing on everything when he crawls at me if i grab his collar to rub his nose in it?

First of all, you NEVER rub a dog's nose in its urine or excrement. It will cause horrible nasal and eye infections, and the dog doesn't have a clue as to why you would be doing such an unnatural and cruel thing to it. If your dog is crawling toward you and urinating, it is obviously scared to death of you. I would question why your dog should be so afraid in your presence. You need to learn to treat the poor animal with kindness and gentleness so that it will no longer feel the need to subjugate itself in front of you by urinating (which is a submissive behavior).
