FiveRoooooers Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 Punkin is almost 13. For two days I've been unable to locate the source (which dog) of the faint staining on the sheets on their dog beds. This morning I found a small "pud" of brownish-reddish mucous-y discharge on the floor, about the size between a dime and nickel. This afternoon there is a frank blood discharge from Punkin's vagina. Obviously this is a vet call but please talk to me if you've had experience with this and what we may be facing. TIA. 2 Quote Old Dogs are the Best Dogs. Thank you, campers.

FiveRoooooers Posted July 5 Author Share Posted July 5 We srsly appreciate all of your support. I am to call the clinic in the morning for one of their emergency appointments. I really hope this is nothing more than a UTI, she had one a few months ago (remember she peed on the carpet in front of me 🤦🏼♀️). We will update when we know something!

FiveRoooooers Posted July 6 Author Share Posted July 6 We are home. Phew, never have I been so thankful to hear "U-T-I" as I am today. Punkin will start her seven-day course of antibiotic at lunch and hopefully she responds as quickly as she did last September.

greysmom Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 PHEW!!!!! As usual I'm late to the party, but nothing really to add except our good thoughts!! I've not dealt with persistent UTIs, but have heard of dogs sometimes needing a low dose antibiotic for extended periods to finally knock them. Hope Miss Punkin feels more better soonest!!

GreyPoopon Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 (edited) Whew! I should have added this last night: I used to keep a supply of antibiotics on hand in case of a flare up when the clinic was closed. Your clinic might be willing to prescribe a few extra, especially given the distance you have to travel. The downside is that testing should be done before antibiotics, but once a houndie starts having repeated UTIs, testing is sort of superfluous anyway. I hope Miss Punkin feels better right away and this is her last episode.

rschultz Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 ((( hugs)))) good idea from others keeping an antibiotic on hand. We did that for Lexie dealing with a different issue. Also check with vet if she can be on a low dose of something to prevent the uti’s. Give her an extra hug from me and I hope it clears up fast. 1 Quote Lexie is gone but not forgotten.💜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
