Periodic Incontinence

I have a 5 year old female Border Collie.  For the past year, every 3 months, give or take a couple of days, she has had an episode of incontinence or some sort of leakage.  I am at a loss. My vet put her on a cranberry supplement, but she still has the episode every 3 months. Any thoughts? Thanks.

My golden used to do this. Every once in awhile, she would pee as she slept. It started when she was 3 or 4. She ended up just growing out of it. Keep watch on her water intake and if you take her out 4 times a day, bump it up to 5 even if she doesn't have to go.

There are medical conditions that can cause this; I have a friend whose dog had the same problem as yours and the vet was able to help with medication. Sorry, but I don't remember the name of the condition. I would take the dog for a second vet opinion and maybe some tests if she were mine. Best of luck.
