Why Is My House-Trained Dog Suddenly Having Accidents Indoors?

You’ve spent months building great toilet habits with your dog, only to find them suddenly peeing in the house again. Sound familiar? You’re not alone, and no, your dog isn’t being “naughty” or “spiteful.”

In this episode of Paws and Pawsitivity, Jamie Watkinson-Harvey, certified dog trainer, explores why dogs might regress in their house training and what you can do to help. From ruling out medical issues to understanding emotional triggers like routine changes or anxiety, Jamie walks you through practical, compassionate steps to get things back on track.

Tune in to learn:

  • Why accidents are often a sign, not a setback
  • What your vet should check for first
  • How stress, change, or ageing can play a part
  • The right way to “retrain” without blame or punishment
  • Why keeping a toileting log can make all the difference

This episode is full of reassurance and real-life guidance to help you and your dog move forward, together. Whether you’re experiencing this challenge now or want to be prepared just in case, it’s one not to miss.
