Hi there-my puppy has all of a sudden started urinating more frequently, but are very small amounts of just dribble. We are currently on vacation & she has been more active than normal. She has been fine up until about last night.

It sounds like she could have a urinary tract infection or possibly puppy vaginitis. She should be seen by a vet to determine the cause. The vet can check a urine for infection and then prescribe and antibiotic, if indicated. Try to find a local vet clinic to treat her.
