Why is my 13-week golden retriever puppy suddenly peeing a lot?

Pet's info: Dog | Golden Retriever | Male | unneutered | 14 lbs

We have a golden retriever and he is 13wks and he just peed A LOT on the floor of our house. He peed ten minutes later on the floor and the puddle was even bigger than the first time. He is potty trained to go outside and rarely has an accident in the house. Please help!

If he is otherwise normal you can wait until tomorrow to see it it gets better but it may be due to a urinary infection. I recommend a veterinary exam and they will check a urinalysis for bacteria, blood and crystals. If the urine is normal they may recommend a blood panel to check Spark's kidney and other values. With prompt treatment he should be better quickly. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Spark.
