My puppy suddenly pees everywhere, even leaving a trail. What's wrong?

Question

My puppy was trained on puppy pads fairly early. For the last month or so he has been urinating everywhere! I feel like he has a bladder control problem he starts peeing as he’s walking and leaves a trail. I don’t know what I’m to do, super frustrating. No matter how I space out his water and take him outside. The second he walks out of his crate he’s peeing somewhere he shouldn’t. Pet's info: Dog | Chihuahua (Smooth Coat) | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 3 months old

That sounds very frustrating! You'll need to have Beckham evaluated by a vet. If he was previously well house trained and is suddenly having accidents, he could have a urinary tract infection, bladder stones, urine crystals, or any other number of underlying causes. Your vet will likely want to start by taking a look at a urine sample, which will indicate if there's infection or urinary crystals present. Hope this helps!
