I have a 3 year old rescue Rottie, she's been with us for 2 1/2 years now.
She has a little problem.
Every once in a while she loses control of her bladder. It seems to happen when she's sleeping and/or otherwise relaxed. She doesn't even seem to notice it's happened. She will not whine to go out like she normally does, and doesn't move after she's wet herself.
Back when we first got her, she did it fairly often. The vet checked her over and although she was a tad bit overweight (I'm talking 10lbs max) she had a clean bill of health.
We took the weight off, and she stopped wetting herself.
In the past 2 years, it's infrequent (every few months) but she does lose control every once in a while. Again, no warning, and she doesn't stir afterwards if she's sleeping.
If a dog could look sheepish though, it's her!
She is in perfect weight, gets walked regularly, and goes to the washroom on a very regular basis. She gets fed twice a day with Hills Tooth Diet (yuck - boyfriend's choice, not mine, or she'd be switched faster than you can blink, but I am slowly talking him out of it) and has access to fresh water.
Any ideas?
(picture to kind of show her body type and weight? ish?)
