Oh No.

My other dog went through a time when she was peeing in odd places, and she was housebroke from day one. I took her in and it was an infection. My cat did the same thing and it was a bit more serious for him, but he recovered. I sure hope sweet Tilly gets back to her old self soon without anything more serious going on.

Glad to hear you caught it pretty early - those meds do work pretty quickly!

[TilliesMom]

Thanks! I'll let ya'll know what/when I hear from the vet tomorrow... praying nothing else is going on...
OH and she was weighed at the vet and tips the scale at 9.2 lbs!!! wahooo!!

I'm late to this thread...as I've been so focused on your birthday...What do ya hear from the vet this morning? Hope ya get answers and get Tillie healed up quickly!

[TilliesMom]

crap. the vet just called, said there was NO evidence of an infection, BUT there were small crystals (whatever that is??) and it was high in protein and alkaline.

He is concered about either incontinence or even a spinal injury. I am keeping a VERY close eye on her, x-pen across the hallway so she can't get to the rooms/beds. and am taking her out to pee every 2 hrs ... sheesh, it's like having a puppy again! <<eye roll>> lol
If she has any more issues he wants to see her again for full blood work as this is SO out of character for her...
He wants me to keep her on the antibiotics and he is sending the urine out for a 'smear' test... sigh.

She could have kidney stones. I had a dog with that and she had to have them out. She was peeing in front of me so that I would notice. Maybe this is all it is.

Oh, dear, Tammy! I'm sorry to read this report! I have no advice, but do send hugs for you from me, and a snuggle for her from Tucker.

How does she seem to be feeling, since she's been on the antibiotic? (Some yogurt {live cultures} might be good to add for her digestive system while on the antibiotic.)

[davetgabby]

be patient Tammy , you'll get to the heart of the matter. More hugs

[Ruthi]

Sorry TAmmy, hope they get to the bottom of this and you can get back to normal soon.

[Kathie]

Sorry to hear that, Tammy. I hope you find out soon what is causing this. Let's hope she is just going through a "stage" and there's nothing serious going on.
