Question
my 1 yr. old Boston terrier is potty trained, however, quite frequently when we go to pick her up, she pees, or when we come home and she is excitedly running around our feet, she pees. What can we do to stop this?  She is a small boston- 10" at the shoulders, she has had 2 very short seizures in her life (that we know of) She is very excitable. How do we stop this? -Kris

Answer
First, I would have a urine sample analyzed to rule out any underlying infection or crystals.

You can try RESCUE REMEDY to see if that helps calm her down.

If the leaking is persistant and a problem, PROIN may help tighten her muscles and increase bladder control.
