How to help a dog with sleep incontinence
Watch for the warning signs.
When a dog is incontinent they will often respond to their bladder leaking by licking around their genital area. The dog's skin might appear irritated and red.
You may also detect the strong odor of urine on their fur or in their bedding area. These are all indications that your dog is suffering from incontinence and needs medical attention.
