unusual behavior

My 3 year old lab/blue tick/border collie mix is usually bouncing off the walls to play fetch when my husband and I get home from work. For the past two nights when I get in the door she has coward and acted very sad, not at all like her usual self. At first I thought maybe she had done something wrong but nothing was disrupted in the house, she didn't go in the garbage or anything. She actually put her tail between her legs and laid down, her back legs shaking, then continued on to lay in her cage. After about a half hour she seems relatively like her old self. Last week we noticed some "leakage" on our bed comforter that did not go through to the matress. Did not have an odor. Could this be related and what could be wrong with her?

The "leakage" could be urine. She could have a bladder infection that is painful and causing her to act strange. The "leakage" could also be from an anal gland. You could check around her butt and see if you see anything. Sometimes they get infected and abscessed anal glands.

Anytime a dog is suddenly acting that odd for no particular reason that you can figure, and especially with the sign of shaking which could mean pain, the dog probably should see the vet.
