[NAGDU] New guide dog is urinating in living room on hard wood floors.

[Mary Metzger]

Perhaps, if you haven't already done so, you can consider whether there is
any pattern to this behavior.  For instance, she may be more likely to
urinate on the floor at a particular time of day or night, or when she's
excited about having visitors come to her home.  

You may also want to monitor how much water she drinks and at what times she
drinks most.  If her water consumption has increased lately or if the
urination in the house began suddenly, you may want to consult a vet.  She
could have a urinary infection which could be easily cured.

In the meantime, I suggest taking her out a few more times each day.

Hi My new guide dog Everlie a yellow female lab is going on the hard wood
floor in my living room. She has been with me for about month now. She is
great worker, but has gone couple times in the house. I don't want to put
her on tie down when we are in the house. I take Everlie out about 4 to 5
times a day. I do clean it up right away. Any I deas to get this under
contro, I want her to have freedom in the house.
