Anyone use britches on a female dog for marking or incontinence?
 

My poor Moka is just not right. First it was the aggression towards Mylee, and now it's marking, or incontinence. I just can't tell. She's peeing all over my house. I'll catch her marking, then at times, I'll find a tiny little spot in the middle of my kitchen floor like it's incontinence. I recently had her checked by my vet and we ran a lot of tests, like CBC, Thyroid, Urinalysis, and I think cushings.and my vet said she wished every dog's tests looked as good as hers does.

I hate the thought of keeping her in a kennel. Her aggression is under control and we seem to be happily coexisting so I've been keeping some doggie diapers on her, but now they are irritating her skin. I've been careful not to pull pull them up tight but that's how much she's peeing. I've been crating her while I'm away and taking them off to give her some relief. But I want her out and free when I'm home.

If anyone else uses doggie diapers, I'd love to hear what you do. What brand you use or where you get them, or, is there something we're missing here as far as her health? Btw, she's 8 years old.

Did they culture her urine? If it was clear, then she could just have spay incontinence. I've used a med called Proin for that. In our dog, it worked very fast and she didn't need to stay in it.

If you need a diaper, message me privately. I stopped making them a while ago, because they're time consuming, but they were very soft and organic cotton. I made pads for them too but they may not hold the urine as effectively as a poise pad.

I would have her checked for a uti. I have girls who mark. They are as bad as the boys. There are very cute panties/diapers for the girls. I can give you some links if you need them. The one thing I hate about them though is if a pup has a b in them it ends up being a bit messy.

Thank you Cathy. If I can't find some, I'll PM you since I knew you stopped making them. I had some custom made but they came to me too small and I think they are what's irritating her. Yes, they did culture her urine. I was insistent when I went in that something is not right with her, and after I kept asking for tests and they kept coming back normal my vet sort of snapped at me saying she wished all her dog's tests came back looking as good has hers do. But I know my dog, she's also losing weight for no explained reason. She's gone from 9.8 to 7.9 in about 6 months. My vet says she is "ideal" but she was "ideal" before. She was extremely muscular, not overweight. She has lost ALL her muscle tone. However, she acts like she loves the weight loss. She's definitely more active, so what gives? I am very loyal to my vets, but I think I am going to seek another opinion.

Thanks Linda, she has been checked for a uti. She'll go several hours without peeing in her britches, then all of a sudden it'll be full. Can they mark and also have some incontinence. She doesn't have a problem at night or in her kennel. I'd love the links you have for some britches. Thanks!

Second opinion is a good idea. I start to worry when they start losing weight for no apparent reason.
