What are some home remedies for kidney stones in dogs?
My dog is a 9 year old Pug and weighs 21 lbs. We just took him to the Vet and we found out he has a few kidney stones. The surgery is $2,000 and we can not afford it right now.
Any home remedies or supplements I could give to him would be very helpful.
Thank you so much.
Yeah, I can take care of my dog quite well actually. Which is why i'm trying to do this for him. I'd much rather keep him & take care of him instead of having no money for him or my family. But thanks for your opinion. :)

If you can't afford the vet care, you can't afford the dog. Surrender him to a pug rescue so he can get the care he needs.

I lost my good friend of 14 years 2 week ago today it was bladder stones. If you really want to avoid surgery try Cranberry Juice. But I am not a vet, you are own your own.

Potassium Citrate, helps prevent formation, but doesn't dissolve the stone.

They just need to pass them with plenty of water.
Source(s): I've had them, so have my pets, it's usually the quality of water you drink, if it's a calcium stone.
