The most common complaint we hear is that dogs dribble urine when walking around, and it can happen after being spayed and losing hormones, but sometimes it shows up years later.

Urine spraying is a variable behaviour. It may consist of simply dribbling a few drops of urine, or, large rhythmic discharges from an erect penis.
Urination is the release of urine from the bladder to the outside of the body. Urine is released through the urethra and exits the penis or vulva through the urinary meatus in placental mammals, [1] [2]: 38, 364 but is released through the cloaca in other vertebrates. [3] [1] It is the urinary system's form of excretion.
Drooling or sialorrhea can occur during sleep. It is often the result of open-mouth posture from CNS depressants intake or sleeping on one's side. Sometimes while sleeping, saliva does not build up at the back of the throat and does not trigger the normal swallow reflex, leading to the condition.
Many of the pheromone chemicals can be found dissolved in a dog's urine, and sniffing where another dog has urinated gives the dog a great deal of information about that dog. [7]: 250 Male dogs prefer to mark vertical surfaces and having the scent higher allows the air to carry it farther. The height of the marking tells other dogs about the ...
Long legs. Young dogs often have long legs for their size. This can cause them to go through a phase of walking sideways, as this gives them more room to fully move those long limbs!
The reason some dogs develop kidney failure following ingestion of grapes and raisins is not known.

[4] A mycotoxin is suspected to be involved, but none has been found in grapes or raisins ingested by affected dogs. [5]
In dogs and cats, eggs of Capillaria plica are released in the urine of the mammalian definitive host. First stage larvae (L1) develop within the eggshell in 30–36 days. When eaten by the intermediate host-- earthworms of the genera Lumbricus or Dendrobaena—the L1 larvae hatch in the earthworm's intestine.
