older female spayed dogs can have a weak bladder, especially around this age.
If you do suspect the cyst, check it out. Put a very small amount of pressure on it and see if it drains.
But no matter what, call your vet!! The phone call is free :) It could be something more serious.

Amoxicillian has a tendacy to cause secondary yeast infections..I would contact the vet.

Perhaps your dogs developed a yeast infection from the antibiotics. It is not uncommon for that to happen.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. Probably a secondary yeast infection. She still has a vaginal canal.
