my baby had a bad seizure last week after battling a uti. I didn't take her to vet because she got rid of it before by eating watermelon and i was giving it to her. Her seizures originally came on after a vet prescribed a flutoriquinone antibiotic for a uti a few years prior so I was hesitant to do more antibiotics. She was having periodic seizures from foods high in glutamate but I didn't really figure it out till now. The beef I was giving her was contributing to her uti. I'm so upset cause she had the worst seizureever that last over 12 hours before i could get her to vet since it was at night and not vets are open at night where i live. I had to put her down. I wish now I had taken her in to get the injectable antibiotic i had done in past that seemed okay. So sad.

What if your 9 week old puppy is trying to pee and only a tiny amount comes out. She looks uncomfortable and drips some urine after trying to.. pee

[@RevivalAnimal]

I'm sorry this puppy is having difficulty. I'm sorry we're not able to assess the condition of the puppy or do any testing. I would recommend to have your vet examine this puppy. Sheryl at Revival.

I suspected a UTI the vet offered emergency surgery said my dog had Pyometra, apparently xrayed but no evidence, i said she has no symptoms, ( diarrhea , vomiting, etc, i asked for antibiotics was given six tablets, today i got a second opinion from another vet, i got the urine sample and its a UTI, i got five A/B tablets.

I hope things are getting better for you female. Sheryl at Revival.

My 12 yr old Chihuahua mix urinates normally during the day and loves to drink water. Everything is fine during the DAY... But lately she's been having random episodes of nocturia. Not every night but they are happening more frequently...2x this week. With her age, should i just consider it a weakened sphincter? Or should I have the vet do a UA just to rule out a UTI or a bladder infection? I could be wrong but there was possibly a pinkish brown edge to the urine stain on my white sheets. Regardless, I'm going to get xs doggie diapers at PetSmart! ;)

I would recommend to have your vet examine her. It's best to rule out any infection first. Sheryl at Revival.

Is D-mannose ok for dogs?

[@RevivalAnimal]

I'm sorry Research Projects, this isn't a product that we carry. We don't have any product information to be able to answer your question. I would recommend to ask your vet if would safe to give to your animal/animals. They'll know with what medications they're already on if there would be any drug interactions. The Paws Squad.

What age is considered young for a spay?

[@RevivalAnimal]

Joey, We recommend waiting until your dog is at least over 6 months and likely even older for larger dogs. The Paws Squad

Quick question.. my dog has been house trained but she did have an accident inside the house a couple of days ago (this occurred twice) however I’ve cleaned the site of the vulva when i seen there was some irritation seen on the site. After cleaning and giving water while having a close eye for any other signs.. she’s literally been normal and the same. Urinating at a regular rate and eating and acting normal. Should i still act and get a cranberry stuff or wait and see if i see any other signs with her in the future ?

[@RevivalAnimal]

I would have your vet test a urine sample to make sure she doesn't have infection starting. Then you'll know for sure if she's needing anything else to be done. Sheryl at Revival.

[@fredziffle5219]

Our dog got dehydrated when we had a seriously ill family member. The vet charged $500 for the sonogram guided urine sample & antibiotics & claimed other tests were done but we never heard. Many friends have said no more pets because vets are too expensive.

[@nangadanga454]

My female German Shepherd got pregnant 2 month ago, and near her delivery time she started peeing blood, antibiotics were given and the blood stopped for a while, then after 15-20 days again there was *blood with mucus/sticky fluid with thick consistency* , again the vet recommended cephalexin, still she pees blood with mucus, now i am worried if it is a UTI or hematuria . Please help.

[@RevivalAnimal]

Nanga, we recommend contacting your vet to have her examined again. I'm sorry we're not able to make a diagnosis of the situation. Sheryl at Revival.

Hi I have a Question, Can a female dog get pregnant without a tie?

[@RevivalAnimal]

Yes, if the male dog is mounting but no tie happens, the female can still become pregnant if the male ejaculates. Sheryl at Revival.

I have a 16 week old cocker spaniel and she pees all the time. I counted almost 10x in one hour. She drinks a lot of water as well when she does drink, then pees almost every 5 minutes. I'm constantly changing pee pads. The urine has no smell, it's clear, no blood. I'm nervous she's got diabetes.

[@RevivalAnimal]

Rachel, I would have your vet examine her immediately. Sheryl at Revival.

[@kylelarson3437]

My little puppy has the exact same symptoms. Did you get a diagnosis for your dog?

[@serotonin67]

You asked all the right questions, but I am not convinced that prescription antibiotics and other expensive PH prescriptions are the best approach to providing an enduring solution. Do you have any experience or recommendations about treating animals with UTIs with Methylene Blue (MB)?. I understand that MB is used surgically in ligation protocols. Thoughts?

[@Rebecca-qx1et]

My female GSD (6 y/o spayed) had a dental cleaning, a cracked tooth removed and a tiny cyst taken off of her foot, she came through the surgery okay and was given antibiotics for two weeks and pain meds. About a week after the antibiotics were done she started drinking excessively and in turn peeing excessively. No blood, pee is clear, no smell and doesn't show any ph imbalance on a test strip. Could it be that the extended larger dose antibiotics is causing her issues? She's not straining or having accidents in the house but we are letting her out every couple of hours day and night. Thank you in advance for any ideas. She is a very bad patient at the vet, scared of everyone there, (long story), so if I can avoid taking her it's better but will if she needs it. I got some doggy urine & bladder balance cranberry/apple cider vinegar pills but that's only been a couple of days, no changes.

[@RevivalAnimal]

Rebecca it could be from the antibiotics. I would recommend giving a probiotic. This will help the intestinal track. If the excessive drinking continue, I would recommend your vet examine her again. Sheryl at Revival.

You may observe your dog circling excessively, scooting (dragging bottom along the ground) or squatting frequently, or even crying out in severe cases. Other clinical signs include decreased appetite, vomiting, small amounts of watery feces or feces that contains mucus (without a normal stool), and weight loss. The Paws Squad.
