I just got a puppy ( 9 weeks old) and it keeps peeing 2-3 drops on the floor. I don't have time cleaning it that he's already peeing again. What could be wrong with it ?

His little bladder can not hold that much. If this keeps up, see your vet. It could be a infection.
He also could be a nervous tinkler. This runs in some breeds & Cockers are one of them.
I raised Cockers for 24 years.

Congrats on the new pup!
Do you notice his tail is between his legs often? Looks scared?
Most Cocker pups pee a lot when they are nervous, anxious or scared. They will stand there and pee just a little and then become even more upset with themselves and pee some more.
Make sure not to scold the pup.. He isn't doing it to upset you only because he is nervous.
I had to put a diaper on my pup when she was little until she had more confidence and was able to hold her blatter better.
Good luck! and Congrats!

It could be that it is scared, it`s young to be away from its mother, don`t yell at him/her, Give it some time to adjust to it`s new enviroment, try giving it a confined type space to make it feel safe, ie, box or crate with a blanket...talk quietly to it,,,,If it persists after a while ( I mean days), Call & speak to your vet, & ask for advice, Good luck

u should take him to the vet and ask why hes peeing so little
or u can train him to pee on the newspaper you can put the newspaper in the closet and train the dog to do pee and poop there

is he trained to ask to go out when he has to go? if yes he probably just needs time to adjust to his new place or you need to leave him out a little longer to make sure he's done going but if your really worried that somethings wrong with him take him to the vet
good luck

Lots of puppies piddle when they are either scared or excited...Whatever you do, don't smack him....He will get better...
Have him vet checked and see if there is something they can recommend...Good luck!

sounds like its just excited and nervous ..
unfortunately that's what cockers do...
they will continuously loose control of their bladder alot..any time they cower or get nervous , or excited to see anything..
also a bit of advise..they have alot of ear troubles too...so watch its ears...
