Effect of prednisone on thyroid gland morphology and plasma thyroxine and triiodothyronine concentrations in the dog. Woltz HH, Thompson FN, Kemppainen RJ, Munnell JF, Lorenz MD.
Prednisone makes dogs drink more and pee more. Incontinence is actually a very common side effect. Max was on prednisone a couple years ago for itching, and he did the same thing. Prednisone also has a tendency to make dogs want to eat more, which is one of the reasons long-term use leads to weight gain. It's not uncommon for the side effects to show up several days after starting. Prednisone builds up in the system to a point (which is why you start once a day, sometimes even twice a day, then lower the dose). Unfortunately, aggression is another potential side effect of prednisone, but a dog that already is temperamentally sound will not be as prone to that.
