Can dogs get Urinary tract infections

 Yes, dogs do get UTIs.  Fortunately if caught early, they are relatively easy to fix:  antibiotic meds do the trick.

She will need to see the vet, and the vet will want a urine sample.  First of the morning is best.  I use an empty yogurt container - washed clean and absolutely dry - and tape it to the end of a yard stick, so I can catch the urine.  Store it sealed in the fridge, and take it in to the vet office soon as they open, they can handle it from there.  Then take her in when they have the appt opening for her, which may be later in the day.

Yes, dogs get UTI's. In fact, my Tootsie was on 2 different abx's from late May till early August.

 Hey I have a rat terrier dog who is 4 years old and her name is Prissy, she is house trained but last night I carried her out to pee and she peed outside but 10 minutes after she got back in she peed again and she did it on the floor and that is unusual for her, she seems to be going alot.  And today she hasnt even wanted to get on the floor and play she just been wanting to lay in the bed, and she will look at me and cry and whine off and on all day and she will not eat, she actually hasnt really been wanting to eat the last 3 days.  Any suggestions on could this be a urinary tract infection.  I am going to call the vet tomorrow unless she gets worse.

Absolutely -- dogs can get UTIs and they can feel miserable.  Do you have any Vitamin C -- literally "ascorbic acid"???  (the herbal ones don't stay in acidic form in the body -- ascorbic acid does).  Give her 250 mg of ascorbic acid (even if you have to break pills) maybe twice this evening.  It will make it not burn as much.

 TRY to get her to drink.  Even if you syringe water into her mouth with a baby medicine syringe.  Some dogs are like we ladies and they STOP drinking becuase it hurts to pee.  Some dogs, are smarter than I am, and they will drink TONS when it burns.  Depends on the dog.

 Get her to the vet asap -- Ask the vet NOT just to do a strip test but to send it out for a urinalysis.  You want to know if there are crystals or stones in there if this is a first occurrence. 

 After the drugs are gone wait 2-3 days (no longer) and ask the vet to test the urine to be POSITIVE the infection is gone.  Then you can set about preventing the next one.

If you have switched food recently, or if the PH of the urine turns out to be really high you may want to do something different.  Where we humans get UTIs becauise the urine is too acid, dogs get them if the urine is too alkaline usually.)

Girls get more UTIs than boys simply because they squat to pee (and boys that squat seem to get more UTI's than ones who lift their leg in my experience *sigh*).

I actually give mine Vit C/ascorbic acid regularly to acidify the urine a bit more -- I think it has to do with my water supply actually *sigh*

Good luck.  But DO take her to the vet tomorrow.
