Female Canine Incontinence

Question
I have a 6yr old spayed female shep/collie mix that leaks urine.  It must be only dribbles here and there.  I have never found and area in the house that has had "puddles" and I have never seen any spots under her when she get up from laying down.  BUT if you look in between her legs she is all raw and discolored were she urinate.  I have tried DES and one other drug from conventional vet, it seems to help initially and then she goes back to her same problem.  I have tried a combination of Echinacea/goldenseal/cranberry and homeopathy of Caustium lm(not sure on spelling)This seems to help her alot.  Not sure if it was the wrong strength but as soon as I stopped this combination it came back.  I am going to buy a stronger strength on the homeopathic of Caustium I believe it is 50M.  I have also tried a product call "leak no more".  If you can help me with any other suggestions or the remedy with strength and doses, I and my girl will be greatly indebted to you.  Kindest Regards,  Pam and Sugar

Hi Pam and Sugar:  Ok, looks like you kids have tried it all!

We have had great luck with Silver Shield:
From one of my clients:

INCONTINENCE
"We noticed our dog was suffering from incontinence. Our vet said her lack of bladder control may be Cystitis. We decided to take matters in our own hands and started using COLLOIDAL SILVER in her food each day. Within a week we noticed her "leaking" had stopped and it's been under control since." M.S.

Please give 2 tablespoons per day x 2 weeks.  ( then, you can drop down to just 1 tablespoon 1 x per day for another few weeks.
SILVER SHIELD (18 PPM) (4 FL OZ)  -
 
I take this Every day - Keeps cold and bugs away, too.
 
YOU may want to get 2 bottles of this - they only sell it is 3 oz bottles...
