What do I do about a dog that constantly urinates?

Question

Our dog constantly urinates whether he is inside or outside. Is this a health or behavior problem?

Answer

The problem could be either medical or behavioral. Urinary tract infections, kidney disease, diabetes, Cushing’s disease, and other medical conditions will certainly cause frequent urination. Intact male dogs also mark their territory by urinating on it. Any urination problems in your pet should not be taken lightly. A visit to your veterinarian will help determine the cause of the problem.
