If its not medical or even if it is you can buy a Bellyband if your dog is a boy and if it’s a girl you can buy her a doggie diaper. My dog Moe pees when he is nervous and the Belly-band works great for him. Chack out this link to learn more about bellybands http://www.bellybands.net

I agree with everyone...take your sheltie to the vet. Did this just start at the age of eight?? Has there been another dog there??

Take her to the Vet for a check, they also have meds now, for females it's a hormone but thats only for what I call the dribbles.

I would take Jewel to the vet. Chances are she either has a urinary tract infection or she has urinary incontinence. There is fairly inexpensive meds for urinary incontinence and is a common ailment of female dogs (especially if spayed). My older dog Suzzi took meds for incontinence for 7 years and my younger girl Motion is on the same medication. Symptoms are usually dribbling urine or simply walking around and start urinating without control. If Jewel was housebroken then I'd say a quick visit to the vets will stop her problems and give her (and you!) some relief. Good luck
