[QUOTE="donna723, post: 101932, member: 1883"] Fran - I've never heard of this happening after a spay, but I guess it's possible. Did this just start suddenly? Have they checked to make sure she doesn't have a urinary tract infection? My dogs are smaller (20-35 lbs.) but none of my girls did this after they were spayed. Was she checked for diabetes? Is she drinking more water than usual? My cousin has a large male dog that suddenly started doing the same thing. After years of being housebroken, he'd run to the back door and make a big puddle by the door before they could even get there to let him out. He turned out to be diabetic, and he gets insulin shots every day now, just like a person. If they DIDN'T check your dog for diabetes, they need to do it ASAP. Don't want to scare you, but my cousins dog was diagnosed and treated almost as soon as they noticed the symptoms but it still caused him to get cataracts that developed so fast, he lost his vision within a few months. He had (expensive!) cataract surgery, ran round with a cone on his head for several weeks, and he's fine now - back to chasing squirrels through their back yard. I hope they can figure out what is causing her problem and that she's back to normal soon. [/QUOTE]
