Hi.I have a 3year old female malamute who has started wetting every time she lies down or goes to sleep. Any idea what the problem could be?

Some female dogs, after they're spayed, have a condition called "spayed incontinence." I think it's caused by hormone loss. Anyway, your vet should be able to prescribe a medication to solve the problem if that's what it is. She also might have a urinary tract infection. In any case, the vet is the right person to see.
