If an adult dog starts making puddles in the house, which was not noticed before, it is a mistake to attribute the behavior to whims.
Most likely, we are talking about health problems. After all, only poorly trained dogs can dirty the apartment.
Experts have explained what to do if an adult dog starts making puddles in the house.
Reason one
This is a consequence of poor upbringing of the pet. It is possible that the dog was simply not given attention in this matter.
Maybe you should try to train your dog to use a pad?
Reason two
Depending on weather conditions and food, the dog may start drinking more water. There is nothing you can do about it, the dog simply cannot wait until he is taken out for a walk.
You need to try to change the walking schedule or sort out the nutrition.
Reason three
It is worth considering the age and health of the dog. Alas, puddles on the floor can be a harbinger of diabetes, a symptom of stones or infections, kidney and adrenal diseases, and even a tumor.
Even helminths can cause such problems.
And let's not forget that a dog can make a puddle due to stress or from joy when meeting its owner.
What to do
If the case is not isolated and the reason is definitely not that the dog did not hold out long enough, then only a specialist can make a diagnosis.
It is definitely not worth scolding the dog for such a mistake, especially until you figure out what the problem is.
Praise your four-legged friend more often when he does his business outside.
