Gwen,
We had a schnauzer years ago that peed when she got excited and when she
would greet
someone. We usually had folks greet her outside and we would take her outside
when we
had been away from her. Our vet said it was either from excitement or
submission… we never did figure out which but she did it pretty much all her
life. (we were lucky to be in AZ at least part
of that time so taking her out to greet folks was easy <LOL>
hope all goes well for you. mj benjigirl and tilly too

Yes, we first noticed it a few days before we took her in for her operation. I
really don't think she did this the first couple of weeks we had her as she
appeared very unsure of herself. But as she becomes more sure that we are her
people - she is just giddy when she sees us.
That give me hope that her little bladder will mature and maybe she will settle
down more.
Thanks.

Dolly used to do that when she got all excited, but she doesn’t any more. I
think the vet said it happens until their bladders mature. I can be gone for
seven hours and she won’t use the puppy pads and she gets all excited when I
get home. Was she doing this before she was spayed? If not, it could be
caused by some internal swelling or something.

We got Casey about a month ago from a rescue. She is wonderful - well behaved
and very sweet, so at first I couldn't understand why anyone would have dumped
her. Now, we may know the problem. She gets very excited if we play with her or
when we come home after being out of her sight for very short periods of time -
even five minutes sends her into total glee. And then we notice little pee
spots on the floor. Once or twice she totally lost it.
We will work with her or put up with it, but I wonder if any of you have ever
had this problem with a dog?
We take her out every two hours and she has no problem going the whole night
without an accident - just when she gets excited.
She was just spade a week ago but was doing it before and I forgot to ask the
vet.
She is about 2 1/2 years old.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Gwen
