Grooming and peeing...

We had Barney groomed yesterday (he looks scrumptious!) and I asked if he had been a good boy and they said yes, but that he peed about 5 times before/during/after the grooming. They would let him out, he would pee, then they would put him in his crate for a rest and he would spin around and pee (just minutes after having peed outside)...Any suggestions as to why he's doing this? Because of his water compulsion, we have him on a relatively strict water regimen at home but I know at doggie day care he gets water whenever he wants...
Do you think he was just overwatered and needed to pee a lot and couldn't hold it? Or is there something more going on?
When I picked him up I let him 'go' before getting into my car and I swear it was the longest pee I'd ever seen! So I know he had to have had a full bladder at that point...

Well...I know both of mine always have to pee as soon as they get out of the bathtub. Before I can dry them, I have to run them out the back door and let them go. Then we can finish the grooming process! I don't know why, but my last dog was like this too. Must be the warm water. :?

Pictures of your freshly groomed scrumptious boy?? :D
We'll be taking pics this week (my parents are in town)...so last night once we got him home (in the pouring rain) was all about last minute cleaning so my parents will think my husband and I live a clean lifestyle!
:lol: :lol: :lol: Good idea!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'll look forward to the pics!
You might be able to chalk up lot of it to just plain excitement. As soon as Lucy's done at the groomer, like clockwork, she has to go number 2-- even if she's already gone on her regular schedule during the day!
Probably just excited...lol... or possibly marking a bit...
my dog did the samething once :lol:
