Of course he started off today by peeing on a rug in my apartment for the first time in months. It's a long climb up the mountain, grasshopper.
Wondering out loud. Do you know about stress peeing... looks like marking but is actually a stress thing.
Best explain two fold thing... My girl under stress will pee to calm herself as it smells of her and she will poop too. So when she been peeing inthe house of late the panic button is set to high in me as we are loooking athree things. UTI, valve failure and to high stress. You just never know.

So could be stress.

Second thing is after a stressor is removed or a stress level drops my girl will go pee...again it is a relaxer. She toss a minor freak out and after it is over she will pee.
Please do not ask me in the volumes of reading I have tracked that down.
Least not know dealing with a mild concussion.

Just a thought to watch what happens before the peeing. Is it after a well handled high stress day?
Look for a possible pattern.
