Hey! The urine control food is the best! I would say it is worth the money to stick with that food. The cranberry and apple cider vinegar won't dissolve the crystals. Giving a treat once in a while like a milk bone is ok if they are on the food mainly. I hope this helped! Dr. Lindsay Butzer

Hey! I am so sorry to hear about this. At 15 years old it is very common for dogs to become incontinent. It seems like she also doesn't have a sense of her potty training anymore. First, I would check her urine for an infection, your vet can do this with a urine sample drop off to them to send to the lab. And start her on antibiotics to see if this helps. There is also a medication called "Proin" that helps control incontinence in dogs. Ask your vet about it. Otherwise, there is not a lot you can do with senile dogs with urination issues but keep them in areas where its ok for them to pee in the house. I hope his helps. Dr. Lindsay Butzer

Hey! This itching should not be a side effect, however if your dog is allergic to penicillin like drugs this can be a reaction to the clavamox or a whole different allergy. I would stop all the medications until you can get to your veterinarian. I would also try giving 1 Benadryl 25 mg to you Shihtzu and see if this helps. Dr. Lindsay Butzer

Hey! I am worried for a urinary tract infection since there is blood. You need to go to your local veterinarian and have them send the urine out to a lab and start your dog on antibiotics to help with the apparent blood indicating there is a UTI already. You may also want to do a bladder x-ray to make sure there are no stones causing bladder irritation. I hope this helped. Dr. Lindsay Butzer

Hey! Urinating in the house could be from several issues such as a Urinary tract infection, where you need to take him to the vet and bring a urine sample if you can so they can send it to the lab to check for bacteria, blood or pus causing him to urinate more and be uncomfortable. Your vet can prescribe you antibiotics for him which you can order online at Petmeds.com. He could has be experiencing urinary incontinence from old age and has to go more. You're vet can decide if he needs something called Proin to help him hold his urine more. But overall, you need to take him to the vet for a physical examination and testing to conduct a plan.

This sounds like you will need to make a veterinary appointment to have your cat examined and have tests run such as urinalysis to check for bacteria or urinary crystals. Also bloodwork to check your cats kidney function. The fact that her stomach is swollen may mean there is fluid in her abdomen from a ruptured tumor or swollen gut or FIP disease. Please contact your local veterinarian for an appointment. They can then decide what antibiotics. There are no OTC antibiotics that can treat this situation you are explaining.

With an infection, bacteria (and/or white blood cells) are seen on the urinalysis indicating infection. With inflammation they are not seen, so these two conditions are treated very differently.

You really need for your veterinarian to run a urinalysis on her first and either confirm or deny an actual urinary tract infection. There are many other conditions (crystals, stones, etc.) that can cause these clinical signs that look exactly like a urinary tract infection and that antibiotics won't help at all. If you are seeing actual crystals when her urine dries, she probably has crystals that won't respond to antibiotics, so you need to know what type of crystal she has and get her on the right food to help dissolve them and keep more from forming - usually prescription canned food, at least to begin with.

Symptoms of a UTI can mimic other problems (crystals, stones, etc.) so have your veterinarian do a quick urinalysis to see what is going on. By the time they are showing signs of a UTI, they usually need antibiotics that you have to get at the vet anyway.
