Dog encephalitis generally does not cause urinary incontinence. Urinary incontinence in dogs may be caused by abnormal bladder function, or it may be caused by some frightening stimulation or excitement. It is also possible that incontinence is caused by damage to the nerve center. It is best to take your dog to a pet hospital for examination to find out the cause and provide symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
