Dog is peeing twice per toilet visit all of a sudden.

Hello there! I'm glad you reached out with your concern. When a dog starts peeing twice during each trip outside, it can be due to several reasons. In many cases, it's nothing to worry about, but it's always good to keep an eye on these changes.



Sometimes, dogs may pee twice because they're marking their territory, which is common in both male and female dogs. It can also be behavioral, especially if there's been a recent change, like a new pet in the home or changes in routine.



However, it's also important to consider medical causes. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a possibility, especially if you notice your dog straining, experiencing discomfort while peeing, or there's blood in the urine. Increased urination could also be a sign of other issues like bladder stones or diabetes.



To help at home, ensure your dog has plenty of fresh water and gets regular bathroom breaks to avoid holding urine too long. Still, if you notice any signs of discomfort, changes in urine color, or if your dog is drinking and urinating more than usual, it's wise to take action.



Remember, it's always better to err on the side of caution. I recommend scheduling a video consult with one of our Dial A Vet professionals. They'll help assess whether further examination or testing is needed.
