puppy adolesence???
Permalink   


Our male boxer Cashis is now 6 months old and latley he has been peeing in the house non-stop! He took to potty training very well and has had no accidents in the house since he was 9 weeks old---until recently. Now he has been having accidents in the house everyday-we take him outside to go potty and 10 minutes after coming into the house he pees again! This all started about 2 weeks after he was neutered (he was neutered about a month ago) Could this have something to do with him being neutred? An illness? or just plain adolesence?
Any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Rhonda

My vote is for him just regressing a bit. He is still a puppy believe it or not. But if you suspect the neutering, there is a small chance he has an infection. It does happen after surgery. A single blood/urine test will show if anything is abnormal. If it is not, he simply needs  a house breaking refresher course :)

I would suggest you take him in for a urine test, just to rule out a bladder or urinary infection.  Not likely to be caused by the surgery, but just a coincidence in timing. 
Other than that, Christina's suggestion is good, back to potty training 101.
