moofie Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Noticed today that there was some blood in throp's pee, i'd dipped a tissue in to check as just looked like a darker bit of puddle on the concrete. When he went later i noticed that the stream splits in 2 to start and can see the blood passed towards end of peeing. A sample was dropped off at the vets a few hours ago & now anxiously awaiting a call back, hopefully its a uti. It doesn't help that I've lost confidence in our vets of late Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moofie Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 Finally heard back from the vet, he thinks its probably a UTI as blood count normal & protein a little high but as he's castrated unlikely to be prostate issue. Going to collect antibiotics in the morning & see if after a week it clears up. Throp's a bit quiet today so don't think he's feeling great, poor boy.

Burpdog Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Sending good thoughts. Which antibiotic is he giving you? A week is usually not enough -- at least 10 days worth. Quote Diane & The Senior Gang Burpdog Biscuits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macoduck Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 A split stream? I wonder if there's a stone in the urethra.

moofie Posted March 1, 2014 Author Share Posted March 1, 2014 A split stream? I wonder if there's a stone in the urethra. Yes I wondered that as did look a bit odd, towards end of stream it was normal but presumably its less flow then. Will see how it is over the weekend, not sure if waiting a week for AB's to work is standard before investigating other causes such as stones. Sending good thoughts. Which antibiotic is he giving you? A week is usually not enough -- at least 10 days worth. DBF has just gone to collect it so should know soon. Perhaps vet just meant to review after the week then, not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
