Dog is all of a sudden having accidents

We have an 8 year old beagle who is all of a sudden going to the bathroom in the house. It's been happening for the past 3 days and it seems to be turning into diarhhea. This is very unusual for him and it's not as if he is not being let out regularly. He also just started limping a little bit today. Anyone have any experience with this? We are debating on whether we should take him to an animal hospital first thing tomorrow or just wait until Monday for him to see his regular vet.

TIA

Thanks. We actually called the animal hospital and are bringing him in today. He had another accident this morning and now there is blood in his stool. Chat Icon

I appreciate the response though.

Let us know what the vet says! Hope your dog is okay!

Could it be the heat? Our dog has been drinking tons of water and just is no longer energetic to play.

It could be a UTI.

Char recently had one - we got her on meds from the Vet for it and it stopped right away.

ITA - or bladder stones. Our dog had bladder stones and is prone to them. Let me know if you need more info on tx.
