Bebo’s Bloody Urine Was The Result Of A Urinary Stone. Cystotomy. The Surgery And Costs Associated With This Condition.
Treatment Cost (USD): $878.00
Bebo was seen about a year before his surgery for bloody urine.
His first visit at our clinic included an exam, blood work, antibiotics, radiographs, and a prescription food for urinary calculi. This initial exam and treatment plan cost was $297.45
Over the next few months the blood in the urine dissipated. In some cases urinary stones can be dissolved over time. Based on the initial urinalysis Bebo's vet was skeptical this would be Bebo's case. We encourage water intake and a urinary prescription diet in all of these cases. While some stones are not dissolvable we want to try to prohibit further stone formation. Also, these pets benefit greatly from the fluid help.
Most dogs with urinary stones show little to no signs of pain, but,, we know this is painful because many pets will strain, urinate more frequently, or even have accidents in the house. Every pet with any kind of urinary changes should be examined (often with a urine sample sent to the lab AND an xray (although not all stones will show up well on an xray!).

My 12 1/2 Year Old Miniature Schnauzer Has A Bump On Her Face I Discovered Two Days Ago. …
My 12 1/2 year old miniature schnauzer has a bump on her face I discovered two days ago. The bump was originally pink and matted over by hair. She got a full hair cut about a month ago so the bump wasn’t there before that. We’ve been putting Neosporin on it and a liquid band aid but after cutting more hair from the wound which had scabs over it with the hair, it is red and still fully exposed with a black edge. Not sure what this could be. Is it life threatening or do I need to take her to the vet?

Krista Magnifico Hello,
Are you a patient of Jarrettsville vet? I think that you are. If so please don’t give another dose for 24 hours. Also provide a meal if it was taken recently so that food is in the stomach. If there is any vomiting or diarrhea please come in tomorrow at 1245 to see me. I am at the clinic 1-3 tomorrow. If you need anything sooner you can email me or send a private message via our Jvc Facebook page.

STEVEN MAYS Post author Yes we are Jarrettville vet clients. Dunkin did eat a meal shortly after I gave the pill. He has been laying around resting all day today. He was neutered yesterday. Otherwise he seems fine.
-
Krista Magnifico Ok. Give him a small soft meal (wet food or watered down kibble) in a few hours. And then the same for breakfast tomorrow morning. But skip the am dose of the carprofen. Call me at the clinic while we are open if you need anything.

STEVEN MAYS Post author Ok will do thanks so much.

Krista Magnifico Hope things are going well.

Hi, Does Anyone Think They Know What Type Of Breed My Dog Is? He’s Supposed…
Hi, does anyone think they know what type of breed my dog is? He’s supposed to be a purebred miniature poodle but I don’t think he is. He has spots all around him, and his tail and size doesn’t look like a miniature poodle. Here’s the pic:

Anonymous did you buy him from a breeder? was he registered as a poodle?
i have difficulty with distinguishing the small fluffy companion breeds…i wish i could help ID the dog.

Angelina Wu Hi, thanks for replying! I did not buy him from a breeder, we bought him from a puppy store called Dreamy puppy. I don’t think he was registered as a poodle. A lot of people think he’s a bichon frise, I have a hard time telling the difference between the small fluffy breeds too 🙂 🙂 Thanks!!!!!
-
Anonymous Ah, that’s a shame…there really is no way to tell unless you want to spend money on one of those DNA tests.
-
Angelina Wu Thank you, just one more question- If you take him to the vet will the doctor be able to tell you or do you have to buy one of those DNA kit test things? Thank you ;>

Anonymous A vet MAY be able to tell when your puppy is older. Maybe.
My 9 Month Old Female Miniature Dachshund Was Emitting A Metallic Odor From Her Back…
My 9 month old female miniature dachshund was emitting a metallic odor from her back end yesterday. I noticed it, did some google-ing, and shortly after the smell disappeared. My research concluded that it might be her anal glands. But I can’t understand why the smell disappeared (and as of this morning had not returned). She has exhibited no other signs or symptoms (no scooting on the floor, no problems going to the bathroom, acting perfectly normal)
As the mystery continued, we were walking outside to use the potty before taking a drive. After peeing, we got into the truck with her on my lap. I noticed she has made a wet spot on my pants. Assuming it was just some urine from her potty trip, I used a towel to wipe me and her off. That’s when I noticed that coming from her vulva was a thick, milky, yellow color liquid that was accompanied by a fishy smell. This led me to think that maybe she has a case of vaginitis. As the day progressed, both smells and the discharge disappeared. And as of this morning, no trace of either can found. I was already planning on taking her to the vet on Friday, should I take her in sooner? She just finished her first heat last week and I am planning on finding out this week when we can get her fixed.

Anonymous i’d get her in today, if possible JUST to make sure.
Hello.
In all cases it is best to have an orthopedic surgeon review the fracture to give options. In many cases it seems cheaper to place a cast but in lots of cases it is not superior to surgery and in many cases it can cost as much to manage over the long term and still give a poorer outcome. In some cases strict confinement can allow healing but it takes weeks and your pet must stay quiet and calm. In all cases I would never recommend amputation or euthanasia until all else had failed over weeks. In fact I never want to recommend euthanasia but these animals must be cared for and given appropriate analgesics. Good luck.
