[Dailydrool] Desperate for UTI help

[Sheri Trinchero]

I am not certain I read all of the posts regarding this so I apologize
if it has been addressed by another, but have you tried switching to a
prescription food such as Royal Canin Urinary SO or another brand?  My
Basset had stones and frequent UTIs (from the age of 4 to 8) and once a
specialist told us to change his food we made the switch and he was
stone and UTI free for the rest of his life...Good luck as I know from
watching him go through that several times a year it was not only sad to
see the blood but knowing how bad he felt from the urge to go.  

 

Good luck and sending some love and drool from Bentley and Chase the
hounds her way.

I'm reaching out for help, advice just anything. My Wednesday is having
recurring UTI's. Our vet referred us to a specialist and he is thinking
it may be allergy related. They did an ultrasound and saw nothing. She
has to stay on antibiotics because if she goes off them[and this last
time she made it 2 days] she has to go back on them. I am just so
depressed and worried about her plus all the cultures, bloodwork, tests
are is draining me financially. She is no better than when we started.
She gets an allergy work up with an allergist Monday but, I just don't
know what I'm going to do. I'm thinking a 3 month long-term antibiotic
this time in that maybe it has settles deep and needs meds longer. I
read where a drooler used baby wipes on her hound and that has helped
so, I'm doing that now when she comes in from pottying. Words cannot
express how devastating it is having your hound not able to get well. I
am just so sad and worried about her. Fortunately, she feels good and is
full of herself. She is eating and drinking as usual.  Lisa, Wednesday
and Booty
