    Before jumping to any conclusions, have a vet check the dog. Five times a day doesn't seem like a lot. Some dogs drink a lot and it has to come out sooner or later. On the other hand, a UTI (urinary tract infection) might make a dog have to go more often. Also diabetes will cause the dog to lose the ability to hold it.

    Can you get medical records or at least the name of the vet they used?

    I will ask them for the records. They can't afford to take him back into the vets. That is one of the main reasons why they are trying to find him a new home. I told her to try with the Boxer rescue group first. And if they can't help her out. That I would take him on, and see what I can do. But like I said with two dogs that already need vet care. I am getting over my head. It is such a shame too, Harley is such a big sweetheart. She did say the people who adopted him, had problems with him going potty outside and then coming in and going again with in 20 min of him being outside. That is either a behavior issue, or he does have some kind of problem. He does drink quite a bit.
