| When to visit vet So little guy is almost 8 months now, he seems okay for the most part. However we're having some potty issues that I'm worried might be health related even though he's still potty training. He's usually really good at running off to pee. Even if it's to the wrong spot. However when he has an accident now, he's been pressing up against me. He never did this before this past week and he has had a lot more accidents recently, including going right next to his potty pad. He also had two accidents in the bed - this has never happened before. Once while he was awake and then tonight while he was sleeping and cuddled up next to me. What concerns me is also recently he has seemed to have a little bit of a hard time peeing, yet these accidents happen without any strain at all. He also knows they're wrong. The second he peed and woke up tonight he darted straight to his crate without me saying a word. I just don't know if these are normal puppy accidents or if I should be taking him to a vet. Especially since he seems completely normal - other than he threw up a little this morning. |

| I think a visit to the vet is in order. It could be a UTI or something simlar.

| I agree, could be a urinary track infection, stones, or something related. Both will cause pain, which is maybe why he presses up against you. I would see your vet as soon as possible. Keep us updated.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I agree a vet visit is in order. When my Cali had a UTI the only sign something was wrong was she peed on my bed.
