Hi, so I'm concerned about my puppy as she's had a huge change in her behavior recently. My Bella is a 16 wk old lab mix and She did great with housetraining with using puppy pads in the house due to the bitter cold. she has started peeing on our beds, the sofa, peeing anywhere BUT the pads. She also tried drinking her own pee, and it seems thick, sticky. No foul odor, sediment, or blood noted. Are there signs of a UTI or diabetes I should be looking for? Could it be behavioral?
