Toilets at night

Question
We have a 6 month old bulldog called Lennox, he is toilet trained during the day, however he still wets himself at night in his sleep, we are 99% sure he is not aware that he is doing it, until he wakes up.  Is this normal?

Thanks very much for your advice.

Answer
No, it's not normal at all. It could be a bladder infection or even a thyroid issue, which would cause him to retain water. He needs a trip to the vet for some tests.

Just to be sure, you should be removing his access to water by 6 p.m. and letting him out as late as possible too. If this is what you're doing and he still is wetting in his sleep, it's time for the vet.

Good luck.
