My dog is sporadically incontinent?

You are obviously dealing with a dog that has genetic issues with bladder stones. She should be on a special diet to help prevent them from forming and if you don't do this, eventually she will be facing surgery to get rid of them and they will continue to form.

You don't say what breed your dog is, but when I was breeding Miniature Schnauzers, my breed had a great deal of trouble with bladder and kidney stones. A bunch of MS breeders got together and formed a group that did some testing to weed out those MS lines that were carriers of the problem We then had a list of cleared studs and ***** that could be safely used to breed and not show puppies with crystals. This should be done with any breed that has a gene in the line in order to completely eradicate this problem. Although there are still MS that are out there with stones, there are also MS breeders that know the good lines and use them for breeding.

There are SOOO many canine incontinence drugs out in the marketplace correct now. The whole thing from ordinary western remedy like PPA (Proin) which is Phenylpropanolamine to herbal and chinese medicines with a form of bladder and urethra strengthening residences. Until that you may speak to you veterinarian about these, try reducing the quantity of water you provide to him/her and provides water for the period of occasions of the day when you are around to let them external. The nappies possibly a temporary repair but there was cases the place these used long-time period can absolutely intent a moist dermatitis to kind the place the urine contacts the skin. These infections may also be very painful and elaborate to deal with (to not mention highly-priced!) My exceptional advice stands out as the medicinal drugs. They're even flavored regularly so your dog could take them like a deal with. If not, surgery would be exceptional. But even then, depending on the intent of the incontinence, there's nonetheless a danger that the incontinence will no go away. Good luck and i am hoping the whole thing works out for you!

Spay incontinence can obviously happen, but if your vet found the evidence to suggest a UTI and then bladder stones there, then this is what's causing all this. Depending on what kind of stones she has (there are two - Google it), diet may, or may not dissolve these stones. I'm afraid it is back to the vet to see whether these stones are still there, in which case she may well need surgery. Your vet should be able to sort this out without needing a specialist, although don't count on it!

I hate to tell you this but one of mine started having repeated bouts of 'cystitis' which our tne vet wasn't able to sort out. Her blood tests kept coming back 'inconclusive' and scans of her bladder etc. revealed nothing. I asked for x-rays, he said scans were 'enough'. I took a second opinion (third actually as I'd phoned my vet of 13 years across the country - we'd moved) and both said x-ray, and my old vet said she'd have opened her up by then too. Eventually the Senior Partner came onboard, x-rayed her and found she was riddled with cancer which had obviously spread by then. We lost her.

My message is to keep at these vets, and get a second opinion if you are getting nowhere.

I have had great success in using homeopathic remedies for my pets. Animals respond very well to this treatment, often much better than using toxic drugs, because the body has to eventually deal with eliminating the drugs. My pets respond very quickly to these remedies.

These pellets are easy to use and can be purchased through the website. EBay sometimes has great deals, too. If you need to use the remedies for a while, if you buy two you get one free with most of the products.

Best of luck to you!
