my older dog and urine problems...

Question:
I have a 19 yr old small dog, and she just got over diarrhea problems, and has been fine for a few days. now, she needs to go out to pee at least 5 times in an hour. nothing is different with her diet at all. any suggestions? thanks!
Answer:
For dogs that age I would recommend you set up a mat indoors where he can pee without having to go outdoors.
Urinary incontinence wont go away, this is not an illness that needs to be treated, its something you will need to cope with, so allowing it to be easier for your dog, will only make it better for you.
Answer:
Please get the dog to your vet. It may very well be a UTI. Also, the vet can prescribe the PPA pills which are very helpful for incontinence.
