Question
My 10 year old female bichon who is spayed is been bleeding whenever she is going for peefor the past 3 days
Did take her for annual check up about 4 weeks ago and did her stool and heart worm .She got a clean bill of health.
Do I need to take her again to the vet or wait for some time.please reply ASAP.Thank you.

Answer
Hi there Simran
this is common for the breed , please follow my instructions
give doggy high levels of cranberry extract daily 1000mg for two weeks as this is possibly due to oxylates, struvites and crystals , they will dissolve if you give cranberry, Vaccinium macrocarpon is what makes this treatment the best way to approach this problem

i suggest if worried take to a vet and tell him to check for these issues, she should not eat high protein and should be getting a fresher diet if possible using cucumber, apple veggies etc fish oils , try not to give the dog a dry diet. The vet will suggest a science based diet ,ssshe must get lots of fresh cold water daily too .
