My Pug, soon to be 9 years old, all of a sudden started peeing in the house. He knows where he needs to go, but it's like he doesn't care and will pee right in front of me. I just don't know what to do and what would be bothering him.

Almost all changes to bladder (or bowel) habits are because the dog has a medical issue going on. Urinary tract infections and bladder stones are very common in dogs and can cause them to pee in the house or need to go out more freqently. It is very important to get this checked ASAP as the UTIs expecially if left untreated can cause serious issues.
If the pup gets a clean bill of health, the vet can go over other possible causes and solutions. The vet may even suggest a brief course of crate training (or retraining).
Post back with an update. Prayers for healing!
This could be a medical issue that is causing this problem. I would really consider taking the dog to the vet and see if he has a bladder infection that is causing this.
This is most likely a medical issue. See your Vet right away.
