Ask the Vet About Submissive Urination (Incontinence) in Dogs

Unfortunately, there aren't good medications for dogs that shrink the prostate. A good NSAID from your veterinarian (like carprofen, meloxicam, deramax, etc.) may help with pain control and may actually decrease swelling a little.

I would need more information to really offer you any advice. See your veterinarian if it conitnues or worsens. Keep him from urinating a couple hours before his appointment so that they can get a urine sample from him.

No - not that I know of at least - behavior therapy is the only thing that seems to help these dogs.

External, topical creams don't really help bladder infections. A face-to-face meeting with a veterinarian is required to be able to legally prescribe antibiotics (at least in the United States) so contact a veterinarian that has met her before. (They will need a urine sample so keep her from urinating a couple of hours before she is seen.)

No, neutering will more than likely not help or hurt - at 5 months old, testosterone is not a factor. For submissive urination, working with a private trainer that can see exactly what he (and you) are doing is ideal - your veterinarian will know a good trainer in your area.

I would need to know more about him, see his x-rays and do a physical exam to really give you good advice. Incontinence secondary to nerve damage is a difficult thing to treat. Cold laser therapy may help so ask your veterinarian about that.

This is called "submissive urination" - she is trying to tell you she is submissive to you. Yelling at her and/or regular noxious ways of training will not work with submissive urination and will make it worse.

Many things: urinary tract infection, incontinence, bladder stones, cancer, etc. Many of these are very easy to diagnose and treat so have your veterinarian check her out when you can. Keep her from urinating for a couple of hours before her appointment because they will need a urine sample.

Many things can cause this but the most common is a urinary tract infection so have your veterinarian check her out and run a urinalysis. Keep her from urinating a couple of hours before the appointment so they can get a sample from her.

This is called "submissive urination" and is sometimes hard to stop. You definitely cannot yell at them when they do it or it makes it worse - because they see you as more and more dominant. The animal behavior specialist say to "avoid situations that elicit the behavior" and many will grow out of it - like if they do it when people come over, tell everyone that comes over to totally ignore him for many minutes after they enter the house, because that is usually when they will do it - but depending on how long they have done it, it will take many people coming in to eventually counteract and to counter-condition the behavior.

I would definitely start by having your veterinarian check her urine with a quick urinalysis to be sure she doesn't have a urinary tract infection that would be easy to treat. Since she "urinates all the time" I would also have your veterinarian run some blood work on her to screen for things like Diabetes, kidney disease, Cushings disease, etc. Keep her from urinating shortly before you take her in because they will need to get a urine sample.
