My dog was prescribed temaril-p and she has peed in the house a few times since her 2nd dose. Is this normal? She is 9 years old and house trained and never has any issues.

Yes, this is a common side effect of this medication. Temaril-P contains prednisolone, which is a steroid - this is very effective at relieving allergy-related itching as well as a variety of other conditions, but it often causes increased thirst and urination as a side effect. In some dogs, this can be severe enough to cause urinary accidents in the house. This isn't dangerous at all, but can definitely be annoying for dog owners! I would recommend calling your veterinarian in the morning to let them know that Marley is having this problem. He/she may recommend reducing her dose to decrease the chance of further accidents.

Thank you for providing the names of Bella's medication! The Temaril-P can cause increased thirst and increased urination, so it's possible it could be causing her to leak urine. But it could also be a medical issue like a UTI, bladder stones, or spay incontinence. I'd have her seen by a vet. I hope this helps.
