[nagdu] Obtaining a urine sample

The other suggestion I've heard of is using a pie pan, but that wouldn't be 
recealible.  I prefer the take out container suggestion.  One of those 
gladware things would probably be good, because they make some pretty 
shallow ones that would be easy to slide under her when she is squatting. 
Collecting from a male dog is much easier...
