Thanks everyone for your comments. I took puppy to the vet today (asked to see someone else for a second opinion) he said it is most likely caused because of weakening of the pelvic floor muscles. They are still as adamant it's not caused by desexing.. Anyway we will do another urine test before commencing with some medication to be sure of no infection. I just hope it works. I miss my puppy cuddles!!

My 7 month old ridgeback puppy has become incontinent over the last couple of months. She was desexed at 4 months as recommended by our vet (and required by council for registration etc). The night we brought her home from the vet after the op she wet her bed but I just put this down to the anesthetic at the time. She has probably done this again about 8 or so times since and also drips wee daily around the house. I saw the vet again and asked if it had anything to with the desexing. They were very quick to say no but couldn't come up with any ideas except performing an ultrasound and then referring to a specialist surgeon (I haven't had the ultrasound yet) A urine test was also done and no infection. I have done a bit of research and found that change in hormones levels from desexing can cause incontinence and can be fixed by medications?? I'm wondering if anyone has any other suggestions or ideas and has been through this before??
