dog with blood in urine
Bear(4yo male neutered Lhasa Apso) was diagnosed with Oxalate Bladder stoned 1 1/2 years ago and underwent surgery and had them removed. He is on medication that I give him twice a day to prevent the stones from coming back. He is also on prescription sciende diet 1/2 UD and 1/2 WD. In October I noticed pink in his urine. Took him to the vet with a urine sample. PH was a bit high, but all tests including xray were fine. He was ok until a week ago, noticed pink again with more red sprinkler at end of urination. Took urine sample to vet, PH was perfect, found no blood cells in urine, vet says she could not see anything wrong with his urine. Was told to keep an eye on him. That could be snowflake like crystals that are irritating him. ! week later, still blood at end of urination. He is palyful, alert, eats fine, is not straining and is not having frequent urination. Should I be concerned and when should I take him to the vet again?
