Subject: Re: Blood in Urine

Has your vet checked for bladder stones? This may be another possibility.
They may be small enough that Tracy can still evacuate but the stones are
damaging the bladder walls, causing the brownish look of old blood.

Stones can usually either be palpated or definitely caught on X-ray.

Good luck!
