How can incontinence in a boxer be cured?

It seems that boxer dogs are prone to incontinence. I love my dog and he's always been an indoor dog, but I don't know how long he can stay in the house. Is there a procedure which will help him?

Depending on the age of the dog you can seek out and recieve hormone therapy for the dog. If that doesnt work you can also use doggy diapers.
