My dog is peeing everywhere. Help!

Accidents in the house are a common problem with our pets.  There are so many causes for this problem!  Most commonly it is caused by a urinary tract infection.  Other causes include behavioral/housebreaking, disease such as kidney disease or diabetes, or incontinence.  To get to the correct diagnosis some testing must be done.  Initially a urinalysis is done and may be followed with some bloodwork.  It is important to find the correct cause in order to determine the proper course of treatment.  If this is happening at your house – it is important to remember this isn’t happening because of old age.  There is an underlying problem that could potentially be corrected.  Correcting the problem leads to a better quality of life for your pet and for you!
