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. |

| sniper had a problem with that as a pup and has grown out of it until you scold her she dribbles. and be prepared if you have them spay/neuter you will go thru it all over again after the surgery b/c we just got past the dribbling stages of her post surgery...hope they figure it out. |

| She may be incontinent. That is probably what the vet is testing for. It's a lot more common in females. It's controllable with medication, but she'd be on pills for the rest of her life. My sister's dog has it and we don't even notice. _________________ www.itsahuskything.com It's a husky thing... you wouldn't understand. |

| Hey Jay just thought I would pass this on to you, Might be a good thing if you can help with the research.
Ectopic ureters VKH (Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada like syndrome) Dr. Mark Neff at the University of California at Davis (UC-Davis) is heading up two studies. Both studies are looking for DNA samples from affected dogs. One study is hoping to find the gene or genes responsible for ectopic ureters. Ectopic ureters is a congenital defect that causes the affected dog, most commonly females, to uncontrollably leak urine and is usually noticed in early puppy hood. While this condition affects only a small percent (.25-.5%) of Siberians, for those affected it means a lifetime of treatments and for some euthanasia. The other study being done at UC-Davis is looking at the genetic cause of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada like syndrome (VKH), an auto-immune disease that causes uveitis (a severe inflammation of the eye) and depigmentation of skin. Oftentimes unless caught early and treated aggressively this disease can lead to blindness. To participate in either study you can contact Dr. Neff at mwneff@ucdavis.edu. |

| I'm so glad that she's going to be alright! I'm sorry that you had to go through such a stressful and expensive situation, but she is lucky to have such a caring owner. I hope she gets well soon!
