Is it normal for dogs to leak urine when sleeping? Everyone needs to pay attention!

Someone recently asked the question "Is it normal for dogs to leak urine while sleeping?" The editor's answer is that it is not normal. Dogs leaking urine while sleeping may be caused by bladder inflammation or other diseases. It is recommended that you take your dog to a veterinarian to diagnose the cause and take appropriate treatment measures.

Canine urinary incontinence is the unconscious urination. This is a common phenomenon in middle-aged and old dogs, medium and large dogs, female dogs, neutered dogs, and obese dogs. Of course, some puppies also have urinary incontinence when they are excited.

Owners can observe the dog’s condition and provide the doctor with a basis for diagnosis. Observe the amount of fluid discharged. If the amount is quite small, it may be vaginal secretions, uterine secretions, prostate secretions, etc.

If the dog has urinary incontinence every time at night or while sleeping, it is necessary to suspect that the coordination ability of the urethra itself is abnormal. After the dog's body becomes abnormal, the dog must be treated promptly.
