Pup Fixed & no Control
I have a 2 year old pup who is fixed nad has lost all of her control and wets, especially at night. The worst part is she has been diagnosed with addisons disease and the meds counter act her leaky medicine. I would like and suggestions to take to my vet since he says there is nothing he can do.

I’m so sorry about your young dog’s physical difficulties. I’m afraid I don’t know anything about Addison’s or the meds used to treat it or incontinence. I can tell you, though, that I never hesitate to seek out second, third, or fourth opinions when baffling veterinary conditions arise. Ask your vet for a referral to a specialist at your nearest university vet school. If your vet is reluctant to assist you in acquiring a second opinion, try Googling “Addison’s AND canine” and see which clinics seem to have substantial experience treating that disease. Those are the clinics you may want to consider contacting. Assuming your vet has run all pertinent tests, you might be able to get the answers you need through telephone consults alone.
I wish you and your pup all the best,
Tempest
