Dog UTI

Question
QUESTION: Hello I have a 7 year old Jack Russell that has recurring UTI's. She always has lots of calcium oxcylate crystals in her urine but she has never had stones. We did a bladder biopsy and her bladder was very transparent and had a major blood supply to it, the results was that she had cronic inflamation and a thickened bladder wall. The vet has said that she will have to be on Clavamox for the rest of her life. I have changed her food and give her wet food so that she has more mositure in her diet. I don't know what to do, she still pees alot all the time and she pees in the house. Then after she pees she will stay squatting and drip for alittle while. Do you have any suggestions??
         Thanks alot!! Kim

QUESTION: I am going to order those products but is their any other immune booster that is cheaper than that? Also when I start these do I stop her antibiotics?  Thanks alot!! Kimberly

Answer
Hi - Let her finish her antibiotic... The NuVET is one of the best and human grade - there are others on the market that are less money but many times the quality is poor and they don't always work.
I know the NuVET works and they guarantee it..

Call Joan and talk to her - She is at ext 265  (1-800-474-7044 ) She is at the office from 8-4 Calif time zone.... M-F.
She can explain our money back guarantee, just ask her.

Good luck
