| should I be worried? It's been a while that Joel has been peeing alot at night. In the day time he goes out about twice but when it gets around 6-7 at night he goes out every 30 min. to an hour and he really goes each time. Could he just be drinking more at night or could a UTI cause him to pee more at night? Just wondering if I should take him to the vets or not |

| A UTI would make him pee a little bit, more often throughout the day and night. Does he drink more water after your daycare kids leave for the day? He's probably too busy playing to drink much while they're there. Do you know exactly when he drinks.... maybe stop a few times earlier in the day and offer him some water to spread it out more.

| Hi there... I am not a vet, but the first thing I thought of was UTI. I would take him in and have him checked, it won't hurt anything but if he does have a UTI, you can get him started on some antibiotics and get him on the road to recovery.

| If anything it's backwards, he's more relaxed and sleeping during the day and more active when the kids start leaving so he could be drinking more water then. Also he loves eating ice when he goes outside, maybe it's all coming out at night,lol |

| It's pretty much the same, maybe sleeps a little more. He still would pee more at night though. |
