Black Lab Urinating In House Still After Being Sick
Dog Question: I have a black Labrador retriever he is almost
8 yrs.old. In the past 2 months he caught a virus with vomiting
n the diarrhea. it went away,but when he was sick he started
urinating in the house. well he got better and is still
urinating in the house.I have him almost 3 yrs. and he never
did this before. We know he's capable of letting us know
because when you let him out he barks to come in.its about 1 to
2x a week and when he does it he looks at you when you find it
he looks at you like i know i did wrong.and you say something
to him and he acts like i know it was wrong.what can be some of
the reasons he is doing this and how do we stop it?
Hi Lacy,
Sorry to hear about your dog.
Dog training is not something I am an expert in.
If it was my dog I would take him out every few hours so he
gets the hint and not wait for him to ask to go out.
By forcing him outside more frequently maybe he'll get the
message.
If you have a crate you might try crate training him as
well, but I've only done this with puppies.
It sounds like he maybe had parvo before, but this should
not be affecting him now. I think it is just a behavior
problem.
