Senior Rescue Chihuahua

[ambassador791]

My 14+ y.o Chi pees in her bed all the time!. She will pee outside but she just loves to lay in her bed and I think she gets all nice and comfy and does not want to get up and go outside. I have piddle pads in the kitchen at night and her bed is there too. So doesn’t have to go far to pee. I rescued her during the pandemic so I don’t know her history. There isn’t anything physically wrong with her. I have had her checked out by vet. I have never had a small dog before so just hoping for some tips. She doesn’t seemed to be phased by sleeping in a pee soaked bed. During the day I get her up every hour to get outside to tinkle. Thanks in advance.

@ambassador791 If you have not had her checked for a UTI, it would not be a bad idea. Some dogs are just more prone to UTIs (especially seniors) and it is something that is usually easily cleared up with antibiotics and a change to a urinary formula food.

@sabtuhore I had her checked out by vet no uti. Good advice though
