persistent UTI problems
I'm back to the old "who's been pee'ing in my closet".... Both yesterday
and today I found puddles. Havign a cat and a dog - ya gotta try to rule one or the other out. I had a rubber backed throw rug on the floor and yesterday it had a huge puddle on it. The only one in there that I'd notice was the cat. Took the rug out - the walltowall underneath wasn't touched (the rubber backing on the throw saved it). I closed the door. This morning I got up to go to the gym. Went to the closet to get my socks, closed the door again. (pocket sliding doors, both animals know how to get in.) returned home and promptly took dog for her morning walk- she poop'd and pee'd no problem. Return home, shower, go to get dressed and find closet door open about 4" (just enough for cat to get in, but not enough for 55lb dog). And a puddle on the floor. Have my son check the litter pan - (that was cleaned yesterday am) no pee in it. WONDERFUL. OK, so this is Sabrina, my BlackKnight, recent tripod. Yes, with the trama of the surgery and now being off all meds, but still in the healing process - MAYBE she's got a UTI. So off to the vet again, tomorrow, cat in tow, dog urine in bottle. Thing is - both my animals have frequent UTI problems. Both are on special prescription Science diet dry food diets to help their urinary tracks. (cat refuses - all out refuses wet food). What can I do? Both have been on Batryl (sp?) antibiotic so much this past summer I'm afraid they'll get immune to its effects. Can someone give me references to this potash thing and the validity of it relating to UTI? Or what else can I do or what food can I switch to that will help. UGH - any advice would be appreciated. Thanks |

Hi Chloe's Mom,
What type of treats does your dog eat? My lab is very prone to UTI's and can't eat most dog treats sold on the market. Also, there is a product/med. sold by the vets called DLM. You may want to check this out or at least ask the vet about it. What is so bad about UTI's (and I'm not a vet, just worked for one) is the formation of crystals , which you probably know by now.

Dog treats are old mother hubbard brand oldfashioned mini biscuits and
we've used them since we got Chloe in January. The thing is - the cat doesn't get the biscuits. Both animals keep showing crystals in their urine test after test and month after month. The vet suggested trying new food, switching the dog from science diet chicken/rice formula over to science diet prescription W/D which has more fiber in it (worked well on the poop end) which was supposed to help inprove the urinary track I'm waiting to hear back from the vet on today's test results. The cat is in for the day (waiting for her bladder to fill up so they can extract a sample) and I took a sample of the dogs in with me. But besides continual treatment of antibiotics, which I know can loose their effectiveness over time. I need to find a permanent solution to reducing the crystals in the urine in both animals.

Can you try not giving the dog treats for three-four days. Then, test the
urine with the ph papers. I test my dog about every 3-4 days. If he shows a high ph, (which usually means he ate something he shouldn't have) then I will give him 1 tablet of DLM to reduce the urine alkalinity. I don't know anything about cats urine:-( I'm surprised the prescription food didn't help but I do know if Sunny gets a treat he shouldn't have, his ph does go up high, somewhere over 8.0+. I make the dog treats with cheese and rice flour and he can tollerate that for a treat. These treats are made to keep the urine ph low. If you would like the recipie, just let me know.
