spay incontinence is a very real thing and I understand standard poodles
are more prone than some other breeds and that it matters a lot how old
they were when the spay was done. note my info may be out of date but
getting a pup spayed to young increases the risk.
my girls even at 15 years are fine but they are intact so I can't offer
first hand empirical evidence.
