I'm so sorry to read that your baby already has struvite stones..The good news is that struvite stones are dissolvable! Since struvite stones typically form in alkaline urine, you may need to make the diet more acidic, but honestly, the majority of struvite stones are formed due to UTIs. So, the important thing is to prevent UTIs.
What does your dog eat? With struvite stones, your dog's food should contain high quality meat protein (as long as there are no kidney/liver issues).
Also, if at all possible canned food should be given instead of dry food...You need to keep the urine dilute so that the stones do not have a chance to form.
Dry food does not contain nearly enough moisture for a dog that is prone to forming stones. Even if your dog drinks a lot of water it's not enough. Canned or homemade diets are most definitely preferred because of the amount of moisture they contain and minimal processing. High moisture treats are important too like apple pieces (no skin, no seeds) and watermelon (seedless).
If you are only willing to do dry food then at least equal parts water should be added to equal parts food at each feeding. So, if your dog gets 1/4 cup at each feeding, then add at least 1/4 cup of water at each feeding as well.
Another important note...Your puppy should have access to a place to urinate at all times. The longer they have to hold their pee, the worse off they are.
Solid Gold sells a product called Berry Balance which helps those with alkaline urine, UTI problems, struvite stones/crystals, etc. It helps maintain urinary health.
