Why is my dog suddenly restless, anxious, and having house accidents?

Question

Robin has her ears pinned back. She is seeming ancy...she can't seem to get comfortable any where. When brought outside to go potty she kinda freaked out and tried to get out of being held. She also did poop in the house. This all happened today and this is not like her to act like this. I'm worried about her. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 11 months old | 4.1 lbs

If only Robin could talk! This type of behavior could be related to something like anxiety or to pain/discomfort. I recommend to have her examined by the veterinarian who will check for evidence of pain on the physical exam. They may also check a urine sample or the anal glands as well. Since she can't talk, it's best to play it safe. Best of luck.
