Not me 
My dog, Minky~ He apparently went into DD17s room and the door shut behind him. He must have panicked because he crawled up on her futon and WET IT. This is a dog that does not sleep on beds or other furniture, so I have no idea what he was even doing in there.
I'm starting to think he might be showing signs of dementia. Sometimes when he goes out to use the bush, he stands there looking around like he doesn't know why he's there. He has a special pen in the yard where he does his business and I have seen him several times just standing there looking lost. Or I'll turn him out and he'll walk a few paces and then squat on the end of the porch--this is a well-housebroken dog; he hasn't had accidents since he was 4 months old.
He's been to the vet recently and has a clean bill of health, other than some COPD and seizures. But otherwise he's doing pretty good for a 10-1/2 year old doggy.

Luckily most of our flooring is wood so it's not ruining any carpets. She's pretty good about going to the basement where we can bleach and run a hose over it. But it's sad seeing this high energy dog go downhill like this.
