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.

We recently adopted a young female husky rescued from a neglect case in Wisconsin. She is presumed to be just under a year old, was spayed about 2 months ago and we have had her just over a month. For the first month she was doing great, only 2 pee accidents in the house. Then, suddenly it became a daily thing. Urine samples checked out fine. Now I have noticed she is peeing while she sleeps too. I have read huskies can have some sort of urinary system issues. Anyone have experience with this? She also has luxating patellas. Am thinking of taking her to a chiropractor I have used for our other dogs. I would appreciate any input.

It could be spay incontinence. Odin has it.

There's medication and hormone supplements available through a vet... Personally I would opt no on those and use natural remedies, limited water at night, and encouraging emptying of the bladder before bed time. Cranberry supplements are supposed to have shown some improvement and there's another supplement (natural) which is supposed to help strengthen the sphincter. I'll look that up...

My dog, Mya Blue started to have this problem about a year ago. At first we would punish her for peeing in the house, but then she started "leaking" while she slept and began to constantly groom her genital area. When I observed this closely, I saw that she was actually cleaning up her urine!!!
I went to my vet, changed food, had the the tests done, and finally diagnosed it as incontinence associated with being fixed. I now give her a natural incontinence medicine twice a day. It is made by Resources and prescribed by her vet.
Hope this can help your little girl!

If her pee checked out clean, I would think incontinence as well. Is she licking herself in that area a lot?

If it is incontinence, it is easily managed with a daily pill. My sister's dog has it and it's not an issue when she takes her meds. Smile
