| Incontinent females? Does anyone have an incontinent female? My Daisy is age 13 and was a puppy mill mommy until age 8. She doesnt like to go outside so we have never been very successful with potty training. I have noticed her urinating more frequently over the last 6 months. It seems much worse lately. We have done two urinalysis and one blood test everything is 100%. She doesnt strain or leak she does little short pees frequently. We have a ultrasound scheduled for monday to check for stones or masses but Im just curious about people that have incontinent dogs if its a leaking or an actual pee. I guess im just worried and trying to find more info. I so want to believe its incontinence not something worse...I thought that maybe from being a mommy for 8 years things are looser. The greedy mill breeder said she never missed getting pregnant on even one heat cycle til age 7

| I have had several older rescues that did develope incontinence & it was leaking in their beds while they slept. I have always used Phenelpropanalemine sp? & it works very fast & no more leakage. |

| Well we have done her ultrasound, blood test, urine and many physical exam...nothing seems wrong. She doesnt leak so they dont feel she is incontinent. Im relieved nothing really scary had shown up in the ultrasound. I had prepared for the worse news. So at this point they fell she is ok. I guess she just cant hold it for very long anymore.
