Blood in urine

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • @tanza:

    Cranberry's are good for helping with UTI's….. I have used Cranberry pills for years....

    Are there canine specific cranberry extracts?

    Seems odd that now he has been having accidents since starting the antibiotics on Wednesday. He's had one accident yesterday and today. Although the one this morning was very minor, almost like he cut himself off right away. When I took him out right after, his urine seemed much more clear so perhaps there is improvement. He had been outside probably 3 hours before the accident. I'm guessing the additional water in his diet and the meds are making him go more frequently.

  • I just use human cranberry pills.

    There are two sides of the coin here. While we may trust that the vet has the knowledge, we also know our dogs. It is ultimately up to the owner to decide the right course of action. Not everyone gets it right the first time either. Neither the vet nor the owner. I have had a vew encounters with vets who think they know my dog better than me-even with test results staring them in the face. On more that a couple of occassions, I have had to step in and say, "No, this is the route I want to take." But with that decision comes education as well. I think that the consumer, as they grow with knowledge, becomes more adept at reading things on their own and the vets should start to listen and have more open minds to the owner. Just MO. Glad to see, though, that things are on the move for your baby!

    Mine don't drink much either and this has always been very commonn with Basenjis as you know. To encourage mine (who're fed raw) I give them a watery drink after every meal -I do things like mix in a little vegetable water, the rinsings of tins which had contained food of any kind, the rinsings of yoghourt pots and all sorts of tastes and I find that they will drink all of what I give them . In fact when two of mine were staying with friends they were puzzled by the way they just stood waiting after they'd had their meal. They wanted their 'milk shakes' as my friend calls it! I 'm glad to hear that Buddy is doing well and hope he continues to do so.
