My 6 year old Boston Terrier is very well trained and has been since she was a puppy. We are gone for 8 hours at work most days and she has never had an issue. She is bell trained, but really prefers to just come to us when she needs to go out.
For the last month, she has been needing to pee 1-3 times overnight, 2-3 times a week. She rarely barks for anything, so her "cue" to us to wake up is to walk from the bedroom to the front door. Unfortunately this is pretty quiet, and if we don't hear her, she has been peeing on the living room floor.
My first thought was diabetes or a UTI, but she has no other symptoms (like drinking more, etc.) and it is consistently only at night, never during the day, which does not make sense for a UTI. I have also noticed that she seems to have more issues on Monday and Tuesday nights. We have recently started hosting a group at our house on Sunday evenings; she is "very" friendly and plays with everyone there then crashes at bedtime. Is it possible this is some kind of response to her excitement, or something else? Any ideas for what I could try/do?
