One of my dogs who was castrated 9 mths ago has changed his wee wee pattern, he used to go  when he was put outside or on his walks..  always a routine time.. never had any problem until the last few days. He has started to wee inside.... BIG ones  now and again but still wees outside , its as if he can't help it any ideas?? He is going to the vet on Tues

Could be a urinary infection?
- By sonja [gb] Date 01.01.06 21:28 UTC
Yes I thought that.. I hope it's so simple (ie; could be other things) But his wee doesn't smell and looks like his normal wee (yes down on all 4s smelling it ..  mmm).  Sonja

I don't know how old he is by neutered males are more prone to Prostate cancer than entire ones.

Mmmm I'm really worried that it's going to be something nasty, but I hope not, he is only 3 3/4 yrs and a choc lab.

If you can take a urine sample with you. Its best to get it on their first pee in the morning - well thats what my vet told me when my dog had a simular problem. Sending get well wishes :)

Likewise when I was pregnant. :) Most urine samples should be mid-flow, first thing.

Hi brainless - are you sure about that?  I thought it was the other way round.
- By Brainless [gb] Date 03.01.06 17:00 UTC
Yes I am prostatic Cancer is more common in castrated males, whereas of course testicular cancer which is rarer cannot occur in castrated males.
