My puppy pees outside then inside. Could it be a UTI at 9 weeks?

Question

I'm concerned my puppy might have a UTI. He will pee outside once or twice then come inside and pee again or he will pee inside then a few minutes later go again. Is this possible? He is 9 weeks old. Recently had his first shots and dewormed. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 10 lbs

It is possible that Koa has a urinary tract infection. But at her young age it could just be that she is not sufficiently potty trained yet (which is normal for a pup her age). I would recommend having her checked by the vet. They will likely want to do a urinalysis to look for an infection.
