Diabetes in Dogs

[oxo]

I have two boxer dogs ,a male and a female. The bitch is coming to the end of her season and Samson is still chasing her around. Over the last couple of days I have noticed he seems to be urinating an awful lot, could it be because Tasha is in season or could it be a sign of Diabetes. Thanks in advance

I have a diabetic dog and the main sign was that she was drinking very large amounts of water. Your boy is maybe making sure his scent is everywhere to warn other males off

Thanks oldmaggie, I hadn,t thought of that . Iwill see how he is in a week or so once he has stopped chasing her everywhere
