Vet check first.
I check for any signs of a health issuse.
Blaader infection or anal glands.
Teeth checked.......

I start by watching closer and retrain the outside potty habits.
Tons of praise and treats if he goes outside.
Ignore the inside stuff. I mean totally ignore it, notice but no comment even by your body language.
Take him out of the room he had the accident in and clean it up very well so no smell at all to him.
Let him back in and not a word.
He get no reward postive or negative for peeing inside.
I watch to see if it was a trigger what happens in the day.
Does he pee after he see a dog go by the window?
Does he pee after his fur sibling makes says or does something to him?
Does he pee after he was been scolded by you?
Is it after something happens.

Sometimes peeing is stress relief it a smell he knows that is calming.
My girl pees always after having an run in with a dog/ or a loud noise hapens outside. It a stress relief not an alpha marking thing.

So watch and make notes as it could be any little thing even that which you see as small.
