I have a going to be 6 year old yorksher terrier that is a great pet. She is thought to be fully potty trained, but latley she has been going in the house(just pee). Even when she been out over her normal amount of times she is going in the house. This is been going on for about a week now and im starting to get worried. It really isint much just a little pee, but still a nusense. She feels very bad about it after words and goes and lies down in her bed with her tail and ears down. Nothing seems to be diffrent about her she does not seem sick, she still is wanting to play all the time. Is this somthing to be worried about?

At around the age of 5 to 7 it would be a good idea to have some bloodwork done and maybe an ultra sound to check the bladder for stones. This is the age where dogs starte to reach their senior years so it's important to keep up with your dog's health. This is a sign of a sick dog, even if there are no other signs. I would suggest talking to your regular vet and see what the vet suggest.

thanks for the response. We took Jackie to the vet today and she got an antibiotic. They are also doing a urine test. We are going back later for the diagnosis. The vet dosent seem to worried, but im still. Its probably some sort of bladder infection, or shes is just being bad, to early to tell.
