This is an emergency and the dog needs to see a vet doctor as soon as possible. Not urinating for two days indicates that Joy either has a blockage, or he has kidney failure. Both, if left untreated, are painful and can quickly lead to death. I recommend taking Joy to a vet as soon as possible to get this treated.
