Dog peeing indoors

One of my dogs has had bladder problems for several years. He is 14 this year and we work around it but its a lot of work. I use a waterproof mattress cover and a lightweight blanket which can be washed and dried quickly. Fortunately we have hard floors. Can you restrict her to a hard floor area during the night with easily laundered bedding. I'm not sure about the nappies at all and have never used them. It's a case of being armed with disinfectant, kitchen roll and lots of patience I'm afraid.

She’s not consistent with her area/nights of floor soiling and hates being shut in the kitchen on her own. I’m trying to make her last few months as pleasant as possible, that’s why I wondered about doggie nappies for overnight

Will both dogs accept having their beds in different rooms at night, so she only wets her own bed?

I would try a thick layer of newspaper both in her bed and on the surrounding floor.

Otherwise I think you are faced with having to get up in the night to let her out unless you could put in a dog-door giving her access to a dog run during the night.

She isn’t I’ll enough to warrant PTS at the moment. But because of her problems she needs to drink more and obviously produces a lot of dilute urine. Vet checks this regularly for blood/infection. It’s night time we need a solution. Bought her a new memory foam bed on Saturday and she wet it last night, the other evening it was the other dog’s bed who was most upset. She’s good during the day and will ask or will be let out regularly.

Do you mean puppy pads or bitch pants which are used when dogs are in season? Does she urinate in her sleep or wee inside because she can't get out? If it's the latter then a puppy pad or two should suffice as long as she understands what's required of her. I don't think bitch pads even with an incontinence pad would hold a full wee but I don't know for sure.

Hi GrannyIris, I'm sorry about your old girl's illness and the problem due to this.
I may be being obvious but have you spoken to the vet about the weeing in the night. She could perhaps have a bladder infection, so you could check that out but if not, there are medications your vet can give you for the weeing in old dogs.
Take a sample of her wee to the vets to save time.
I'm no help with the best nappies I'm afraid but I hope someone will be along with advice soon.
I for one would not go down the PTS route just yet, as she is still "happy" and eating.
I think you will know when she is ready to go.

Is it just at night? We put newspaper down and when our dog was ill she wee"d on that. Made it easier to clear up.

I think GrannyIris is right. This is such a hard decision for you but I feel the time has come to do the right thing by a terminally ill and much loved pet.

GrannyIris Its so sad when you have to consider some of the options that you have,if you are thinking of nappies for your lovely dog I would seriously think the quality of life has deminished its just not the naturel thing to do in my opinion and maybe the time for goodbyes is the right and fair thing to do for your faithful friend.
