Guest lego71 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 We have 10 year old grey hound named Jess. We where watch TV one night on the floor with her about 6 mos ago. She was sound to sleep and began urinating she didnt even move ro seem to know that she was doing this. This we found to happen a couple more time then it just stopped. She had a check up in April andevery thing was fine. She had her teeth cleaned about a month ago. When we returned home this evening we found that she had urinated a couple time. It looked like she had been sleep because it was on her back behind area. She sleeps like that all the time. Does anyone have any ideas what could cause this and should we see the vet? Appreciate any info. Thanks Jess's mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate any info. Thanks Jess's mom My girl is nine now and has also suffers from incontinence. She has spay incontinence and I do have her on meds for it. You will want to go to the vet to rule out an urinary infections and to decide if meds are the route to go, proin does have side effects but I keep my girl on the lowest dose that helps. If she goes off the medication, she leaks often and appears embarrassed, also when it happens when we are at work, I worry about the urine scalding her..so even though meds are not flawless, they have improved her quality of life.

nancy14 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 My June Bug just turned 10. About three months ago, I discovered that her bed was wet and she was soaked. It was the weekend and it happened again. Monday I took a urine sample to the vet. It came back fine. The vet put her on meds -- 2 times a day. He said that after we got it under control we would "play" with the dose. June is now on one pill every three days, and she is fine. See what your vet has to say. It can be controlled.

MaryJane Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 You might want to consider having a urinalysis and a culture done to rule out a urinary tract infection which could cause the symptoms that you are describing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeofNE Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Yes, you should see the vet. It could be a LOT of things. Bring in some urine if you can.
