There’s a medicine for the leaking, Prion
A month supply was around 40.00 a month

If she is happy & otherwise healthy I’d try that after having masses removed

Also there is an inflatable collar that isn’t as terrible as the cone

She's fine for the most part but I have noticed her back legs are starting to give out on the tile floors at times.

What breed?
Boxers have a high chance of degenerative myelopathy
There’s no real test but I did a DNA test that showed mine had both genes which confirmed her back legs going out wasn’t arthritis

I lost my girl 2 months ago to a stroke, I wasn’t ready for her to go but I’m glad I didn’t have to watch her slowly become unable to walk all the while trying to decide if it was time

Proin, it is not a good idea to give your dog prions.

There is also Incurin which is a hormone replacement. Especially fixed females have lower estrogen so they lose sphincter control. We have a dog on Incurin and after a few days it was like a light switch no more leaking.

As for when to put a pet down I think you should keep in within the people that know the dog ie your family and your vet. It is far too easy for me or someone else to be too far to one side or the other without really understanding the conditions. If you have a good vet they can help you along and absolve you of the hard decision when it comes time if it hasn't already. It is a difficult choice but deep down you will likely know when it is right for those involved. Good luck and enjoy what time you have left with the sweet ole puppy!
