Location: Never in one place long | I got a new foster for just over two weeks ago, he is a 7yr neutered male and for the first 10 days, he was great, supposedly housetrained, didn't have issues with him peeing/pooping or anything, take him out regularly etc. Now in the last two days, all of a sudden, he's got to pee ALL the time! I'm finding dribbles right out in the open, it's not like he's trying to hide it and he pees and pees every time I take him out. It just came on VERY suddenly... I'm thinking an infection??? This morning, he couldn't even wait for me to open the door, he peed while waiting for me to put my boots on. Anyone experience this? What do I do!! He is supposed to be adopted Thursday but they'll never want him with him doing this! |

Location: Georgia | Get him to the vet. My Aussie that was doing that had bladder cancer. He was put on medication that helped. He lived for 2 more years on the medicine. Sorry, I can't remember the name of it. |

Location: Never in one place long | Thank you all! I was thinking these things as possbilities too, just hoping its manageable or just a problem that can be fixed with meds. :( He is at the vet and I'm waiting to hear what they say. |

This is my first thought, and was the case with my min pin that started drinking and peeing like crazy.
