Dog Bladder Stones Treatment, Help!?
My Sheltie was taken to the vet today after urinating several times on our belongings and bedding. I did witness blood in her urine and took her ASAP this morning.
Indeed, she has 3 to four bladder stones and a urinary infection. She was given an antibiotic to clear up the infection and "Hill’s PRESCRIPTION DIET s/d" to be eaten everyday for 2 to 5 months in hope of dissolving the stones.
The other option was surgery-$1,500. She’s 3 years old and the vet explained that this food can cause the stones to disolve to nothing or even be urinated out when small enough.
Has anyone had experience treating dog bladder stones or with this food? Any other suggestions?
Thanks so much!
My Basset Hound had bladder stones. The x-rays showed hundreds of them. From tiny grains of sand up to larger stones. He did not recommend food to me until after the dog had surgery to remove the stones. We had the surgery done at less than 1/2 of what you’ve been quoted. I think the final bill was around $600.00. Why don’t you phone around to some other vets and get some prices.
If surgery is not an option for you, try the food and see what happens. You really only have 2 choices. Food, or surgery.
Good luck
I have tried every diet in the book but nothing worked as good as colon cleanse. I appreciate they say that pills do not work, however they sure worked for me, and they have been showcased on CBS News too. There’s a free trial on right now at http://coritn.myslimmingonline.info , give it a try, why not?
