What type of stones does he get? Calcium Oxalate or struvite stones? I know struvite stones can often be managed and/or dissolved with special diets.

I found this article interesting. It said males are 75% more likely to get calcium oxalte stones and Yorkies were one of the breeds they are common in.

The stones they removed last time was Calcium Oxalate.
