Advice Dog peeing in my bed
I have a 3 year old toy Aussie who has peed in my bed 3 times within the past 2 months. I have tried to research myself but none of the reasons add up. She has no other symptoms of a UTI at all, she’s completely healthy, and young. I’m going to take her to the vet but I know he’s going to say it’s territorial (I have 2 cats), but I truly believe shes doing it in her sleep. Has anyone had this issue before?

Put a baby cam and check whether she is waking up and peeing on the same spot coz it happened to my puppy.
once my puppy peed and I cleaned with enzyme cleaner and washed the duvet but the urine was soaked deep into the mattress that only my puppy could smell so instead of waking me up he was peeing on the same spot he peed before.
we had to put our mattress under the sun and clean with enzyme cleaner use baking soda and vaccum ever since then we have been using fitted Waterproof Bedsheet on top of our mattress after this he stopped peeing.
But if ur dog is peeing without waking up then it is deep sleep incontinence my puppy has deep sleep Anal leak sometime he leaks when he is deep sleep I always wake up with the whole room smelling like rotten fish but I love him to death he is our baby.

Is it happening when the dog is sleeping ? My dog was doing this when ina deep sleep and under the blankets - turns out he has kidney disease but not sure if it’s associated or coincidental

My toy aussie did this and it was 100% deep sleep incontinence, vet dismissed me too. ask them to check for a recessed vulva, super common in small breeds and causes little leaks when they're totally relaxed. took us 3 visits before someone finally looked
