PLEASE HELP ME!!

Question
I have an almost four year old boxer named rukus who for the passed 3 years has been house broken.NOw he pees in my house everyday when i leave. even if i take him out and make sure that he has gone.
The only thing i can think of that could be causing this recent change is the fact that my fiance passed away.  My dog and Michael (my fiance) were very close. Rukus was my dog before i met Michael but they had become inseparable. I'm wondering if this is a way of rukus being upset about him no longer being around and how i can fix it.  I couldn't bear to lose my dog too but this has to stop.

Please please help me! I don't know what else to do

Answer
Meghan, I'm so sorry about your fiancee. :^( Your dog's behavior very well could be a result of your fiancee not being around anymore, or it could be an infection. Is he only doing it when you leave the house and leave him alone, or does he do it while you're home, or at night, too? Is he crate trained? If so, I'd recommend crating him when you leave, at least for a while. You might also consider setting up play dates or putting him in a doggie daycare a few days a week, so that he doesn't feel so 'alone.'
