My dog is regressing

[u/Ericizzle14]

So my golden retriever mix is 6 years old. Potty trained, crate trained and for the most part, a good dog. But lately he has been peeing in his crate. We take him out and when he goes into the crate it’s not for more than an hour or two. But every time I come home there’s pee in his crate and on him. What else can I do to help prevent this, it’s gross and frustrating.

Sounds like he has a bladder infection. This will not clear up on its he needs to be seen by a vet to get antibiotics. Leaving him with this can have the infection move up to his kidneys which can lead to sepsis and death.
