Why is my senior dog peeing blood and having accidents inside?

Question

I have a ~ 10 year old, male, neutered dog. He Recently to the emergency vet for a cut on his leg, and put on a course of antibiotics for a possible infection. antibiotics are done, leg wound is closed over, though there is still a small, firm lump under the new skin. He seems no longer bothered. This morning he woke me up to go outside super early (unusual). Since then out multiple times and one accident inside. Noticing red blood in urine each time. Seems comfortable otherwise, eats/drink. Pet's info: Dog | Australian Cattle Dog | Male | neutered | 9 years and 8 months old | 50 lbs

That's not good there is blood in his urine. This can be a sign that Gus has a UTI or bladder stones. He will need to see a vet for this. If he appears otherwise healthy and happy, eats and drinks plenty, you can wait until Monday morning. If he appears lethargic, ill or distressed, or if the urine appears very bloody, then he should be seen by a vet ASAP. Feed him wet/canned food, add water to it, and make sure he drinks a lot of water to help flush the bladder.
