Jack, relatively recently, has taken a big step backward in his housetraining issues. When we got him a year ago at age 10, he often peed in the house when we were gone. But we worked with him and got him to go outside only.
Well, in the last month we've come home to accidents in multiple spots regularly. Last night, we resorted to closing off the kitchen when we were gone for 4 hours. We left a pee pad (which to my knowledge he's never used) and he used it. But he also got stressed out and chewed on his bed and got into some plastic tupperware.
He's still OK when we're home, and he alerts us when he needs to go.
Think I should see the vet about this? |
Oh Mike! I hope Jack is going to be ok...I would call the vet...sounds like something could be going on with poor ole Jack! Let us know how he makes out.
