Hi,
He doesn't seem to 'strain' when he pees, but his muscles always seem at
work when he pees. And.. he usually pees a lot when he goes.
Boo Boo just finished 2 weeks of Amoxi for his ulcer. Do you think he could
still get a UTI in the presence of that in his system?
And no, I don't have any testing strips.
It's still dark pink, but not near as red as it was earlier today.
Where they like to go during the day is in the bedroom where the litter pan
and puppy training pads are, so I don't know who's pee'd where. I do know
that after I noticed the redness he did pee, because I had to wipe some of
it off him. He went on a puppy pad, so it wasn't like his whole tummy was
covered or anything. That will happen if he goes in a corner on the wood
floor, though. I try to clean him if I see or know he's gone, but I avoid
wiping the immediate area where he penis is so I don't hurt or irrate him
there.
Not sure what to do at this point. All we have here is that triple
antibiotic cream, and I'm not sure if that's good for them or not if they
lick the area.
