Weeing....

[heygirl28]

When we got our little girl at 8wks we were told she and a few of the other bitches in the litter had suffered slight bladder infection but course of tablets sorted it. Now 7wks later at 15wks she is out every 15mins on a night, and i mean every 15! Whining at the door, out for a quick wee, straight back in. Is this normal for a puppy or could she have the infection back?? She'll go thru the night 8/9 hours without needing to wee. Also, everytime we have visitors, she is sooooo excited, she wees!!! Everytime!! Is this normal and all i can say is thank god for wooden floors!!!!!!

The weeing in excitement is perfectly normal, a lot of dogs do this but most of them grow out of it eventually!

What is her wee like? Is it normal colour & smell? Or is it dark & sweet smelling? If it's dark then she could well have a repeat infection. If it's normal, she might just like going outside, or may not have full bladder control yet.

If you're at all worried, though, get the vet to give her a quick once over.

Agree absolutely, the only thing I would add is if she whines to go out to piddle at her age she's fantastic xxx

She does whine all the time to go out for a wee, thats why we were a bit concerned. She's never poo'd either in the house which i thinks fab for a 15wk pup!!!!

I've been very proud to own GSDs too, would have at least 7 now if I could but can't' but I wouldn't swap my 2 for anything in the world either

Zac pee's everywhere when each of us come down in the morning, when I come home from work and when ever people he knows visit. It's perfectly normal.

I hope he grows out of it sooner rather than later though, we are getting through that much kitchen roll that the local shop assistant has even commented on it hehe

Ellie does this when we come home and also when my dad visits but no other time lol
