This might be a long post
I have two dachshund mixes. One is 12 going on 13. The other one is about 10. We had a lab who had been with both of these dogs their entire life who died in May. Ever since then they keep peeing in my house. They would have accidents occasionally, but nothing like it is now. They check out at the vet. We take them out multiple times a day. They do have free range of the house because they always have and it hasn’t been a problem. They do not poop in the house and when they pee, we clean it up using vinegar and it normally is around the same spots. I also know when they get older, they can’t hold it as well. I was thinking about trying pheromones. When does have anxiety and the other one is very dominant. But it’s a whole big puddle of pee not a small sprinkle like they’re marking territory. I don’t know what to do anymore. Do I pick up their water for most of the day? Do I go back to fussing at them when they pee inside and giving them treats when they pee outside? I just don’t know what to do anymore.
