Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| Subject: Stress? bladder control? Mon Apr 25, 2011 2:45 pm | |
| I recently adopted a unaltered female 7 months. Since she is new to our pack (have a 1.5 year that was our friends) It's been about two days so far. I don't she was housetrained very well. We are working on that. She is also still trying to figure out her place in the pack. We she goes downstairs there is a trail of pee it only happens when she comes downstairs even when she just peed outside. She does have diarrhea because she is getting use to dog food. (last owners feed table food) I am getting kinda worried because we went to the dog park there was only two dogs and one other woman out there. After we started talking she said her 12 week old has something i forgot what she said but has diarrhea and can't hold in her pee it's might have been a virus or something. So i'm just worried that she may have caught it. I'm banging my head against the wall because forgot the name of what she had. I'll wait until friday to see if it lessens to see if it's stress or not. Her pee is clear and looks normal to me right now and doesn't seem to be in any pain when she goes. I found it odd it's only when she goes downstairs. |

| That is odd that it's only when going downstairs. Is it every time she goes down the stairs or only sometimes? Does she seem to be afraid of going down that stairs so that it could be a fearful pee or something? Is she drinking an excess amount of water?
Regardless, I would take her to a vet if you haven't already done so to have a wellness exam and get her scheduled for a spay.
If you've already taken her to your vet and she was given an all clear then I would at least call them back and ask about the current peeing situation to see what they think and if they think it would be advisable to bring her in to be checked out. Is she current on vaccines also? _________________ |

| You've only had her for 2 days? If so, the peeing and diarreha could be from stress. She's brought into a new environment, with another dog, and her food has been completely changed. Those are 3 big changes to a young pup all at once. Have you gotten a wellness check by a vet yet? Or do you have her vet records, or can you call her previous vet and check? Give her time to settle in. Sometimes is takes a few months for dogs to be completely settled into their new environment. If the diarreha doesn't get better in a couple of days, see if you can put her back on table food of eggs and green beans or carrots and see if she firms up. If she doesn't and you don't have access to her previous medical records, you may want to make a call to your vet.

| Okay I do think it was stress. She is doing alot better! I think she was holding it in and when she would go downstairs it just was alot for her.. I think all is good but she does have a appt for a spay I'll ask the vet if everything looks fine. On the bright side she seems to be gaining some weight or muscle. |
