Why can't he hold it in? His eating schedule is firm, he does not seem to have urine infection as far as I know.
So for me, I have to take him out every hour (working from home currently), if I'm lucky every 2 hours. I try to postpone it somewhat to teach him to hold it in a bit longer. He is quite good at letting me know when he has to go, but at least once a day, especially in the evenings he pees indoors.
Have any of you experienced this? |
A hug to Mirza, I am sure he does not mean to do this, our Yorkies are clean and want to please us. I do have experience with this, and my first comment would be a little infection or bladder stone. A holistic pet blogger posted this information for smaller dogs. (sorry it talks about the Piddle Place, but her information is good) Small dogs should not be expected to hold their bladders as long as larger dogs, but if your Mirza is "going" every hour, I would think a visit to the vet might be in order, even if just for peace of mind, and we can move forward from there if it is a behavior issue.

Does he go in front of you? Does he "go" in the same place each time?
