lab urinates a lot

Question
Hi , I have a Labrador male who is 10 months old. Off late, his poop was coming very loose. So I took him to a vet and he gave some medicine shots to my dog last evening. Since then the dog is urinating excessively. The vet says that medicines are not to be blamed for.
Though the dog is very obedient and trained for house-breaking; but since yesterday-he is urinating even without raising any alarm and even when he is tied.I am very concerned and tired. Please help.
P.S.- the dog resisted a lot while getting shots and was kind of very quite after that.

Answer
It is possible what ever was causing the loose bowels may have had the same effect on the bladder.  Larger pet supplies sell belly bands mostly meant for males that mark.  Perhaps it could help keep your house fresh until he is over his problems.  If it doesn't clear up before long, check back with the vet.
