re: Dog peeing in the house suddenly

Crate him or secure him in a room. Had a dog start pissing on our couch out of no where in the same spot every time or we gate him in the kitchen any time we leave. Never have issues now.

Probably a UTI. To the vet.

He may have a UTI. An antibiotic can clear this up rather quickly if so.
Also, until he gets past this episode, limit his water (and food) intake. Make it scheduled, especially if he is an inside dog. By doing this, you can help him control his bladder by being aware of when he last drank and ate.
Lastly, limit his access in your house until you are clear he is healthy again. If he has an accident, at least it will be confined to a limited area (crate).

He's medically fine so I dont get it. Honestly im close to giving him up. He won't stop this marking habit amd I cant keep having furniture being ruined by him.
Sorry but you sound like a pos who shouldn’t have a dog.

You have to start pissing on the furniture to show him who that alpha is!

Probably has kidney failure

Sounds like a UTI or diabetes

My dog started doing that. Took it to the vet for routine check up and didn't think it was important as it was regular urine. Thought he was just drinking too much water. Couple months later he got real sick. His pancreas had failed and had to put him down. I told the vet about the peeing and she said that was a sign that he had the diabeetus which is which caused all this.
Yeah we had that happen, randomly, about 3.5 years ago.
There was some kind of stress reaction from surgery or the kennel cough he got after the surgery, b/c his blood was taken before the surgery and was fine. But he almost died because we had no idea it was possible and took his lethargy as issues from recovery from the ACL surgery.

Stop showing the dog Nebraska lowlights. It’s literally killing him.
Posted on 1/14/26 at 7:44 am to TigersHuskers
Did you take him to the vet?
Posted on 1/14/26 at 8:43 am to TigersHuskers
He's marking his territory against the new poltergeist you have in your home.
Good luck.
Good luck.

Have a Shih Tzu that has always had a small issue marking his territory in the house, but not a big deal since it's been small amounts, and usually in a place that can be cleaned easily. It's gotten a little worse over the past year, but again, not constant. Wife had enough and started buying these doggy diapers. Seems to be a pretty good solution. We bought several and wash them once a week.

Well, put the fricking dog outside where there is no furniture to ruin. No way in hell I'd have an animal in my house that has been found to be healthy that is pissing all over the place and ruining thousands of dollars worth of furniture..

Nah hes fine health wise. Vet said its all good.
But I was looking through the recording on my houses ring camera and it showed my neighbors kids letting their dog run all over the neighborhood while I was gone yesterday afternoon and running up to my front window. I wonder if that has been getting my dog going where he gets the urge to mark.

Leave him outside where they belong.

Maybe. But just like human doctors, not all vets are created equal. May be worth a second opinion.
Did they run a UA? Have they do bloodwork?

I hope it is something simple and treatable.
On a much less important note, when my elderly dog became incontinent I finally decided to put pee pads everywhere he was going (the family room and the game room). Amazon sells some that look like persian rugs, but are absorbant and washable. They were like $20 or something like that. At least it kept my house looking less like a zoo.
I also second the male wrap diapers.

Your dog likely has one of five things going on.
1 Stress + learned behavior which might be the most likely. Staying with a friend was stressful for the dog. Maybe had new rules with the friend.
2 Anxiety-driven marking
3 Inconsistent reactions from humans.
Do you respond the same when the dog pisses? Or do you send mixed signals?
4. Medical issues (less likely)
5. Territory Confusion
This is according to ChatGPT.
If I had to guess its probably a mix of 1 & 3.

OP - our dog was about 9, and started doing the same thing. then it went from peeing to vomiting up anything she drank. turned out she had been Diabetic for a while, and the vet missed it. we left her at the vet on a Friday to get fluids and get her stabilized. on Monday Morning her body began to shut down and we lost her.
went from ok, aside from the peeing to gone inside of a week or 2.
make absolutely sure it is not diabetes, cause if it goes south - it is fast. not a day goes by i wish we had known and treated it to have her here.

Another theory is diabetes. The age is right, the urine is ultra concentrated and rancid (like ammonia by chance?), and if the dog is hoovering water as well, that could be diabetes rather than renal disease.
