oh no, Phoebe is sick...

~Topleaf~~Topleaf~
edited December 2007 in General Discussion
My westie; Phoebe is sick. Yesterday my aunt found blood in her pee. And we took her to the vet today. She was all depresed, sick and was not eating or drinking. So we went to the vet, they gave us some anti-biotic (sp?)<br>Aaanyways she is... (as I am happy to repot) Doing very well. We fed her pills in her favourite food. But she will need to go in tomorrow or the day after for an x-ray and more checkups. They think she might have stones or some infection. I am worried. But I am hoping she will get better. Her most recent pee has been yellow and not the brownish red it has been lately, and I think the pills are working. She is happier. <br><br>Has anyone else ever experienced this with there dogs? If so I would be happy to here from you. Through PM or post. <br>Please only <span style="font-weight:bold">happy</span> thoughts are needed at this time.

    I saw something exactly like this on TV, with 3 Mini Schnauzers. For them, it was stones. They were surgically removed and they made complete recoveries ^^
    Bye.

    Yeah. The person at the vet said she had a dog that had to have an operation. I hope that isn't the case for my girl... She would hate it. :( <br>We are trying to get a pee sample from her. But every time it is only one of those "Drip a smidgen of my pee to mark my territory" pees. <br>AAAAANNNNND every time we have the slightest bit of success in gathering her pee, there is a clump of snow...And the vet doesn't want that because it is "Diluted"<br>So Right now I look like a maniac following my dog around with a bed pan thingy. :roll: What we do for our dogs.

    yeah.. You would think. But for seven years my dog has been taught that it is wrong to pee in the house, and so she would hold it in till she blew up. Then if I went outside and waited; she would look at me like I was a weirdo, meanwhile my fingertips turn to icecubes.<br>It is not as easy as that doodle lol

    Do dogs get urinary track infections? <br><br>My oldest cat, Madeline, gets them. She's had 4 or so. She's 6-7. So.. it's not the greatest, eh? She was only supposed to eat wet food, but she's picky and wouldn't eat and lost weight so we gave her dry food to that's 'anti-urinary track'. She's only had one since. She peed on me. ><<br><br>But she's obviously healed every time. :)

    <br><br>Yeah. They think that it might be a urinary infection. One anywhere in her lower body area. Liek abdomen and such. The anti-biotics are supposed to help with that. So I am hoping she is healed. We will have to see when the x-ray comes through. :D

    nope. We don't abuse her. And we got her from a reputable breeder, and we checked them out and everything.

    No, I wasn't accusing you! Maddy was abused! That's why she only has a stump for a tail! >< I was saying that's not why she has it.
