| Are you cleaning it with an enzyme cleaner like Nature's Miracle? If not, she'll continue to mark there because she can still smell it after you clean it up... |

| Hm, I dunno. If she's peeing excessively, you might want to have her checked by a vet. She could be having a medical issue. |

| Agree with potential UTI. She may be drinking a lot of water, because she's dehydrated from urinating a lot. Vet will likely have you collect a urine sample for a urinalysis to see its bacterial content, and to measure specific gravity to determine if she is concentrating her urine. I assume this is a new issue, i.e., she was normal for a while after you got her?

| UTI comes to mind, especially if this is not typical.

| My concern would be diabetes. My first yorkie developed it. She drank excessively and peed puddles (small lakes ) I think I would definitely have her see a vet to rule out diabetes or UTI or anything for that matter. Keep us posted.

| I agree with everyone, take your baby to the vet and have it checked out. If it turns out to be nothing serious, you may want to monitor her water intake. My little one is on a medication that causes her to drink a lot of water and then urinate a lot. Once we confirmed with the vet nothing was wrong, we put her on a schedule so she gets water at certain times of the day, we monitor the amount, and then we follow each time up with taking her out to go potty. for times when we leave the house we put down potty pads in one specific place. good luck and I hope nothing is seriously wrong. |

| 7 times in 24 hours is not necessarily too much. How old is your puppy? I'd say all of mine go that often |

| Wow, if she's only peeing 7 times in 24 hours that isn't bad. I have all mine trained to pee pads(the newest one hasn't learned to go to them yet, so, she's still using the floor.. ), but, the ones that are trained pee more than that in a day. When they're trained to pee pads, they learn they don't have to hold it, so, mine are constantly using the pads. It would be a good idea to have her checked, but, it doesn't sound like she's going all that much.... |

| Not sure if this will work, but if she keeps peeing in the same spot in the garage, why not try putting a pee pad there? If it is a bigger spot you could start with 2 or 3 pee pads and then slowly work your way down to one. |

| Interesting experiment. She'll either pee on the pad or find a new place.

| I know, I agree, that's why I was wondering age, etc. and, I did say yes, she should take to the vet, to rule out a uti, but, to me, 7 times is nothing..I wish that's all mine did pee in a day.. |
