6.5 weeks is /entirely/ too early to take a puppy from its littermates. Your breeder should be made aware of this.

The urination issue may or may not be behavioral, but if it is, it would not surprise me if the dog wouldn't have these issues had she been left with her litter for the appropriate amount of time.
