[quote=Anonymous]Need some sane advice here!  Dog is 13.5 and is definitely getting old - he's not as active anymore, doesn't bark at every little sound he hears, and is just moving around more slowly overall.  What's driving me batty is that he's recently begun to pee and poop everywhere in the house!!  He started this trend about a month ago in the basement, at first we thought it was just a fluke.  We began to take him outside every hour, but he was still doing his business inside at any chance he had.  We put a gate up which prevents him from going down to the basement, and now he's peeing in our living room!  We've got nice furniture there, and I shudder at the thought of him peeing all over it (I've got an antique chest from the 1750's, and he peed right next to it this morning.)  DH wants to kennel him at night now, in order to keep him contained and prevent him from continuing in this latest trend.  I, personally, have never been too fond of the dog but he's grown on me and is good with the kids.  DH and I got into a heated exchange today, he thinks I'm out to have the dog put down.  Maybe it's time to actually do that??  But what do you think?  What's the measuring point - the tipping point - with this?  Do they sell Depends for Dogs?  Ugh!!!!![/quote]
