My adult healthy dog urinates in the house
Can anyone tell me why my healthy 2yr old Boxer dog will wet on my carpet shortly after going to the garden.
Charlie sleeps in our bedroom and will not urinate in there but having gone into the garden after midnight he will wake us at 7am, go into the garden again to relieve himself. Instead of coming back up stairs he sleeps on the settee. I come down at about 9am to find that he has wet on the sitting room carpet, why is this, he cannot need to empty his bladder again after such a short space of time.
On the other hand he will go for ten or more hours without visiting the garden so I know he doesn't have a problem with his bladder.
It seems that if he is on his own even though we are upstairs he will wet and this doesn't happen all the time. We find he hates being alone in the day and always leave a door open so he can get to the garden but while we are away he will always take objects from the work surfaces although he doesn't destroy anything.
My husband and I are retired and spend most of the time with him, we are very confused as to why he is doing these things
Please help to shed some light for me
