    He may have an infection and can't help himself. Have you taken him to a vet?

    How old is he? What have you done to train him properly?

    I hope you are not hitting him or punishing him in any way. That will make it only worse.

    Are there any major changes in the household, like a new puppy, new pet, new baby, moved to new house? All these can cause a normally well trained dog to start doing things he knows he shouldn't.

    First step would be the vet, like WG suggested, to rule out an infection.

    If that's ruled out then it's time to re-train him what you expect. Lots of praise when you do this. If he has an accident and you catch him doing it, a firm no, and then take him directly outside. Go with him, and when he potties lots of praise, a treat, a lot of "good dog". Really let him know that you're pleased when he does the right thing.

    It may take a while, and it will definitely take a lot of effort, but it should work.

    Let us know what the vet says, and if you need any more help, just ask. :)

    Sounds like separation anxiety.

    To eliminate him peeing in your daughters bedroom, close the door :-) Pretty simple fix.

    If he eliminates if you leave him alone in a different room, crate him :-) Another easy fix.

    You should rule out any UTIs, so take him in for an exam. Although, UTIs don't make the dog pee often, they actually can't pee often ands its very uncomfortable for them. But you should still go get him looked at.

    Also, how old is your dog? Maybe he can't help it.

    Dee, a few details would help us stop guessing. How old, did he just start or has always peed inside? Do you walk him, does he poop after dinner, when was his last vets visit. What does the vet have to say
