Our 10 month old pup wets her bed at night when she is sleeping, Whats wrong with her ?

Question

She is sleeping when this happens

Answer 1

Incontinence is sometimes treatable. Take her to a vet.

Answer 2

This could be a normal occurance due to the age of the pup. If your pup has been given any type of steriods this will be an after effect of the drug. Check side effects on all medications given her in the last two weeks or that she is taking now if any.
Make sure you allow the pup to drink normally but be sure you are on a training program that incorporates her telling you she has to go tinkle and asking her if she needs to go and taking her before bedtime.
As in all cases this information is given as a suggestion and that your vet can best determine the correct course of action to take.
Good Luck

Answer 3

It could be a few different things. She could be suffering from cystitis among a few conditions the vet would want to check for you. Some bitches have a problem with wetting just before they come into their first season. Also, if she has been spayed very recently, this is a common symptom and can be treated with medication.

Answer 4

your pup is no different then a 10 month old child, i would lay puppy pads out under where she sleeps (if you havn't already) so you don't have to clean so much until you ask a vet and get her blader examined if it does not stop at month 11. If she has been doing this for over 2 months then get her checked out now

Answer 5

It sounds like her bladder does not have enough elasticity. there are dog food formulas made especially for spayed females, and they have the extra vitamins/nutrients to compensate for the lack of estrogen that helps with bladder elasticity.
this problem is common with dogs that have been spayed before 5 months.. Your vet may have a good supplement on hand, so it wouldn't hurt to call and ask.

Here is a great discussion of the problem, and available treatments. Dr. Mike DVM lists 3 medications that may help>

Answer 6

I have the problem with my 5mo dobie. she sleeps so soundly that she wets the bed and never wakes up. i find her lying in her pee. I asked my vet and he said that I might need to restart crate training to help her strengthen her bladder and ability to hold her urine. I take the water up at 6pm and this has seemed to help. I also make her urinate immediately before going to bed. Good luck on this one.

Answer 7

That's a question for the vet, since it's abnormal for a dog to soil it's sleeping quarters at all, much less while she's sleeping.

Answer 8

take her 2 the vet, but dnt b too worried, my 9 yr old dog does it 2, always has. mind she also barks in her sleep, wakes up n looks around all confused as to where the sound came from!!! same when she farts!! lololol

Answer 9

She's just being a normal pup. That normally happens

Answer 10

well......it might be nothing except she drinks a lot before she falls asleep and and she isnt let out..umm if it is that try letting her outside before you go to sleep and everytime you wake up let her outside...dont let her drink water about an hour before you go to bed take her water bowl and empty it.....maybe she is having nightmares at night...yes animals have dreams too.... my dog when he was little would whine at night and move his legs and pee.my vet told me to limit the food amount and not to feed my dog before we went to bed ....try feeding your puppy in the morning and in the afternoon then no more food......

......it might not be because of those reasons............like others said she might have a weak bladder..........if this goes on and what i suggested dosnt work.........try taking her to the vet...your vet will help..............good luck!

Answer 11
