My pup-Lizzy(5months old, mixed Beagle, female neutered) - has had a bladder infection almost constantly since we got her. Took her to vet and he gave her antibiotic-Metronidazole 250mg.1/2 tab evry 12 hrs.-was mild..didn't work. Took her back he gave her much stronger antibiotic-Primor 120mg.1.5 tabs a day. she STILL has the bladder infection..seems to have gotten SOME better briefly but worsen again. She "dribbles" every time you call her, stop to pick her up, or scold her..thus making it impossible SO FAR to house train her....When we do take her out to void, she has a tad bit of mucus in her urine. no blood. WHAT CAN WE DO..and WHAT IS the PROBLEM? (she doesn't seem to have any fever, seems energetic for a while..like maybe 2 hours spells, then naps, then feels good again..eats well..so her symptons..other than her dribbling...are non-existent.) PS..even though I have wondered whether she was hurt when spayed(she was spayed a few days before we got her)..I have wondered if there may have been a surgical "accident"-slip of instrument-- into the bladder.??? There are no marks or scars and seem fine in that area through.

Vet question of the day

Add to Cat moving house and not adjusting well

My cat and I moved into a new home.  He now has three canine friends who he has spent time with before.  One of the dogs was eating the felines stool, so I purchased the Purrforma self cleaning litter box.  He would only urinate in it and chose to defecate on my side of the bed after 6 days.  He attempted to defecate another time, I got him and placed him in the litter box, however that only worked once, and choose the bed again.  Since then I purchased a new non automated litter box and returned him to his feline pine cat litter - that was two days ago and he has not eliminated anything sine.  I have been leaving the bedroom door closed so he is not tempted.  I'm just waiting for him to use it. any thoughts?

Should I lock him in a confined area until he uses it?

I need some advise or he might end up getting kicked out, and he is a special need cat as he has three fused lumbar (congenital defect.)

He is also doing an excessive amount of licking to the point where he has two balding patches.  He just had an allergy shot 4 weeks ago.  Should I inquire about behavioral modification type drugs?
