Training or medical

Q: My puppy ( 13 weeks) has been doing well with potty training. She can make it from 9pm-6am with no accidents in her kennel. During the day is other story. I will let her out every 30-60 mins for 15-20 minutes at a time with our other dogs. She will pee and poop outside, but then she comes inside to urinate again. She is going large amounts every 20 -30 minutes. I can't keep up with taking her out that much. Does she possibly have a bladder infection? What else should I be doing?

A: If she feels good otherwise and is able to go through the night the most likely explanation is it is a training problem.  From your description there would be two avenues you could explore.  One is accepting that your reprimand and corrective measures when there is an error indoors are not significant enough.  The second would be not allowing her indoor time with the other dogs quite yet.
