14 Year Old Dog Started Peeing and Pooping Inside?

My dog has been an inside dog his entire life, he has been in a unit for 3 years and has a doggy toilet he has used for about a year without issue.

Four months ago he started peeping and pooping in my loungeroom on my rug and surrounding carpet.

I've scrubbed the carpet and even put up a doggy gate to restrict him from the area, he has broken the gate several times and is determined to use this as his spot to relieve himself.

If he can't manage to get through the gate, he'll use his doggy toilet (one of those grass patch covered things that drains into a tray beneath).

He won't pee or poop anywhere else, he just kills himself to get into the loungeroom whilst I'm out. Even when I'm home if I doze on the couch I sometimes wake up and catch him doing it.

Help!

He is getting older and should be checked out by a Vet. He may have a bladder problem. It is pretty common. Sometimes older dogs get some funny habits and ideas.

It can be hard to know what they are thinking (or not thinking). But it does require patience and kindness. Good luck to you.

My Dog is a staffie and he is 10 yrs old. He as started to poo and wee everywhere. He goes out in the garden comes back in and just does it in front of anyone. It was only occasionally but now its more often.
