I looked up the symptoms online and they much my dog exactly, she is seven years old. Anyone know of home remedies for treatment of them? She has passed one or two already.
Thanks very much!
P.S I do not need any demeaning comments —-
they run through my family and they surgery TERRIFIES me!! how do you prevent getting you gull bladder taken out our kidney stones??
I have a dog that starting peeing every time she’s let in the house. We’re talking within 1sec-10 mins.
Yesterday my husband brought her in for a bath and to crate her a night and as soon as he placed her in the tub she squatted. He washed her and took her back outside. My husband doesn’t do the ‘dog thing’ so his solution is to just keep her outside. Which is fine, they have a dog house we built for them (all out 2 by 4s, haha), food, water and we still take her on walks and play with her.
But she didn’t have this problem before…well she wasn’t fully house trained but she never made messes so fast. I checked out the ASPCA website and got this:
"If your dog soils indoors, it’s important to visit his veterinarian to rule out medical causes before doing anything else. Common medical reasons for inappropriate urination and defecation include gastrointestinal upset, a change in diet, a urinary tract infection, a weak sphincter, hormone-related problems after spay surgery, bladder stones, diabetes, kidney disease, Cushing’s disease, neurological problems, age-related incontinence and certain medications. Please see our article on Medical Causes of House Soiling in Dogs to learn more."
I know the obvious answer is to take her to the vet but I’m looking for anyone whose had this problem and what they did/turned out.
I have a 8 1/2 yr old scottie. She has been diagnosed with stage 2 kidney disease recently. She has high protein and phosphorous levels. She was put on the Hills K/D and Purina NF diets, but won’t eat it now. Her vet insists that is what she should eat, but it’s getting to be a bad deal with alot of wasted expensive food and a hungry dog. I’ve tried mixing in rice, but to no avail. She also has bladder stones and is a little dehydrated. She’s on Epakitin, a phosphorous binder and high blood pressure medicine. I also give her a vitamin supplement daily. She really is in pretty good shape and loves to go on her mile a day walks, so I’m not willing to give up on her yet. Any help would be so appreciated.
I woke up this morning and urinated as usual, but I had more urine in my bladder and the flow wasn’t as strong as normal (ocasionally I had to stop and start up again).
Also, my bladder feels painful (tender) when I make certain physical movements alongside an overall dull cramping. I only noticed this beginning just yesterday.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there anyway I can self treat this?
