Bogangles Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 We had a urine test done. There is protein 4+ in the urine, specific gravity 1.045, PH 6.5, Glucose Ketone negative, Bacteria - non seen. Also Clindamycin has been prescribed to "help" her teeth infection. I believe the roots of her one of her back teeth are exposed and the word furcation has been used in previous consultations. I am concerned that antibiotics may affect the kidneys, especially with a dog that does not eat consistently. Does anyone have any experience or advice on this.
