Welcome to the board, Nakita.

Sorry your girl is having problems. A good first step would be to have a vet look her over. The inappropriate urination might be anything from a urinary tract infection to the onset of diabetes. That wouldn't explain the destructive behavior, but something is going on and I suspect you'll need a vet's help to figure out what...

Your dog could be getting some kind of dementia , or an infection that making her act strange . I agree she needs to taken to a vet fast before she does something that could hurt herself like chew on a cord if she starting to chew on odd items.
