Question Should I be concerned about frequent urination?

I've only had Honey for about a month and a half....she's 10 yrs. old and I've noticed that she needs to be taken out more and more often...probably hourly now. I don't recall her needing to go as much when we first brought her home.

So I've researched it a bit....and came up with a few possibilities...most NOT good....

canine diabetes
bladder or kidney stones
urinary tract infection
hormonal imbalance
psychogenic polydypsia
Cushings
or just old age...


I'm a little concerned about Cushings disease...and diabetes....so I'll be making an appt. with my vet to get her tested for it.. She has a few of the symptoms in both.

However until the visit and all the testing is completed.. I am curious if others have a senior yorkie that urinates often and it's just old age.
