Hi,

I have Charlie who is going to be 10 in Sept. He all the sudden doesn't seem to be able to hold his urine in the house. He runs around like he just can't hold it any longer even if he just went potty within the last 1-2 hours. He is having multiple accidents in the house. It's heartbreaking as when I walk into the room he lowers his head cause he knows going potty in the house is not ok. He seems to be drinking a bit more water too. Not an excessive amount but more than normal for him. Charlie is on FROMM Game Food Recipe dog food. He has been on this for probably about a year now. He was on Royal Canin for adult Yorkies for many years but he was such a picky eater I changed to this. Could it be too much protein for him and cause a sudden issue after this long?

Charlie has a vet appt tomorrow morning to make sure he doesn't have an infection or something. He had his teeth cleaned 3/3/2016 and had all the pre-op blood work and all came back fine.

Any ideas or things I can ask the vet to check in the morning?
Thanks!
