Question
I have an adopted 2 year old, male Bichon. he's trained to urinate when we take him out on walks. We've had him for about 5 months and he has never had an accident inside the house before. Today we came home and he urinated twice and when he was sitting on my lap he started shaking a lot and it went on for a few minutes. Also, last week he threw up but i thought that was because he ate something from the street. could there be something wrong?

Answer
Well to be honest I would take him to the vet for a check over, there are many different reasons why he did this one is psychological and maybe something happened in the garden that you did not witness, or he ha possibly picked up in infection from outside, he may also have stones , struvites or crystals especially if he is on a dry diet.

I would ask the vet to check that side of things and commence a daily dose of cranberry tablets just to be on the safe side.
