Can you find out the pH of your dog's urine? This will be helpful to know because if it's acidic which many times it is with calcium oxalate stones, then you can add foods that are alkalizing but also low oxalate to her diet.
Unfortunately, these stones do not dissolve, so they will need to be removed surgically. The longer they are in the bladder, the more damage they can cause. I'm sorry to hear about the kidney stones...Those are a different story.
The most important thing for you to do to prevent more stones from forming is to add water to each of her feedings and give high moisture treat like watermelon to dilute the urine.
I will pray for your baby...
