    • Hi Ms. Proulx,

      Thank you for your comment, and I hope you found the information helpful. Given your fur baby is having trouble holding his urine, I think you’re making a great decision to have his primary care doctor check him out! It is true some diabetic patients need to urinate more frequently, but there are also many other causes of the signs. So the best first step is a complete evaluation with your family veterinarian. Although I hope it doesn’t happen, IF your boy’s health becomes complicated, you make find it helpful to consult with a board-certified veterinary internal medicine specialist. Keep up the great job being a dedicated and proactive pet mom!
