What's wrong with dogs leaking urine?

Pet Knowledge
Urinary leakage in dogs may be caused by urethritis, prostatitis, prostatic cyst or enlarged prostate compressing the urethra. Older dogs that have not been neutered are more likely to have prostate problems. If the dog's current appetite and mental state are normal, it can be treated with symptomatic medication first. Dogs can be given oral anti-inflammatory and anti-infective drugs, combined with drugs that can inhibit bacteria and repair the bladder and urethra mucosa for treatment and observation. At the same time, wash the dog's genitals with warm water every day, and then wear an Elizabethan ring to prevent the dog from continuing to lick the urethra.

1. Reasons for dog urine leakage

1. Age problem

The older the dog, the greater the probability of urinary incontinence. This is because as dogs age, the muscles in their bladder and urethra gradually relax, causing the dog to lose complete control of its urine.

2. Physiological problems

Some dogs are born with some physiological problems, such as deformities of the urinary system, urethral stricture, etc. These problems can cause dogs to leak urine.

3. Psychological problems

Dogs can also leak urine due to some psychological problems, such as anxiety, fear, loss, etc. These emotions can cause your dog's muscles to tense up, which can lead to urinary incontinence.

4. Disease issues

Consider that the relevant parts are irritated by bacteria or stones, which in turn causes an increase in the frequency of urination and an inability to control urination. If urethritis or cystitis is caused by bacterial infection, relevant anti-infective treatment options need to be actively adopted, such as using antibacterial solutions to flush the urethra, or systemic application of anti-infective drugs.

2. Treatment methods for dog urine leakage

1. Maintain hygiene and daily education

For the problem of dog urine leakage , the first thing we have to do is to maintain hygiene. We can use special cleaning agents to clean the areas where dogs leak urine, which can effectively prevent the growth of bacteria and maintain family hygiene.

We can prevent dogs from leaking urine through training, such as training dogs to urinate regularly and develop good eating habits.

2 Increase the amount of exercise

Appropriately increasing the amount of exercise for dogs can help them consume excess energy, thereby reducing the probability of urinary leakage. We can take the dogs out for walks, play, etc. to let them fully exercise.

3. Seek medical treatment

If urethritis or cystitis is caused by bacterial infection, relevant anti-infective treatment options need to be actively adopted, such as using antibacterial solutions to flush the urethra, or systemic application of anti-infective drugs Drugs, etc. If your dog is unable to control urination due to stones, the severity of the stones usually needs to be diagnosed. If the stone is relatively large, it usually needs to be removed surgically, and then other tiny crystals or stones need to be cleaned by flushing the urethra. Finally, urinary system diseases are easy to relapse. It is recommended to increase the amount of water your dog drinks and flush secretions and tiny crystals in the urethra in a timely manner
