my pet will not hold it's bladder even when he is outside all day and the kennel is not working inside?

Question

my dog stays outside all day he has a big yard to run around in and when he comes in at night he will not hold his bladder and if the kids leave their door open he will go there and poop too (but only in their room) he will pee everywhere else. age:2year old dog have tried a kennel but he'll go there too in his bed. he only use to pee when left inside alone but now he does it when we are sleeping. he has 2 cats to play with at night should we get him a puppy to play with too? i think it's a mind thing not a physical thing but will take him to vet to check it out, but if there is no reason for him not to hold it for at least 7 hours how do i potty train him all over again for the nights? he is part shepard and weinner dog i was told a dog will not pee where they sleep but he will and lay in it too when he is put in his kennel. strange dog! any ideas on how to help the baddler control problem? i really don't want to get rid of him thank you for your help.

sorry forgot to add he has been fixed since he was a puppy.

Answer 1

Take him to vet and make sure it wasn't a urinary problem. One way to deal with it is to put a potty training pad where he sleeps to at least keep it under control so it doesn't leak all over. Have you tried disciplining him or rewarding him when he does go outside. And let him outside right before bed and as soon as you get up.

Answer 2

Is he neutered? If not that would be my first step. He's marking his territory.
