Smile Hiya

Hi,

Just joined the forum to get some help and advice from other dog owners.

I have an 11 year old Weimaraner called Vinnie. She is absolutely brilliant and has never been any trouble whatsoever.

I live in Spain and dogs are always being abandoned in our village. Last year a Husky was abandoned and lived on the streets for six months. When the dog catchers took her away to be put down (we have heard they gas them here) we decided to rescue her. We called her Summer and she is a lovely dog with an excellent temperament and gets on well with Vinnie. The vet thinks she is about 3 years old.

Unfortunately, Summer has a problem with wetting in the house. I can walk her for an hour or more and when she gets back home, she can wet herself almost immediately. She doesn't do it intentionally, ie she doesn't stoop. It happens when she lies down and relaxes. She also wets her bed during the night although she has a long walk just before going to bed.

Can anyone offer any advice please. Telling her off doesn't have any impact on her whatsoever.

Thanks for any help
Angie

Re: Hiya

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Great to hear of your rescue story - not so good about the wetting problem.

You may want to take her along to the vet and have her checked out - sometimes this can be a result of a bladder infection.
Telling her off is probably not helping, especially if it isn't a deliberate action.

Good luck.
