However, Saturday he had 5 accidents in the house. This is in addition to taking him out regularly. We are scheduled to have him fixed in a couple of weeks because he has an enlarged prostate. Do you think his accidents are due to this or just the adjustment. I don't won't to confuse him and just can't wait til he bonds with us. Sorry for the length but any advice would be appreciated. | I think his accidents could be due to both. When Cody had an enlarged prostate due to a prostate infection there were alot of times that he would have accidents because the prostate presses on the bladder when it's enlarged and it alsdo pushes on the rectum.
