Dealable: Strong urine odor is sometimes just a sign of sexual maturity or sexual stimulation. Has he been neutered? Is there a female dog in the vicinity?
He's 10-11 year old (adopted from a shelter so no concrete birth record). Neutered since day one. Our younger 1 year old (adopted stray off the street). Spayed. Neither one is interested in each other except their usual dog greetings and an occasional play.

Also dealable: Strong urine odor may be due to the fillers used in cheap dog food. Try a premium brand.

Maybe hard to deal with: Strong urine odor is sometimes a sign of failing kidneys.
Talk to your vet.
