I am concerned about his kidneys if he is continually going to the bathroom -- please do what is right for him, not what is convenient for you!! | She is very lucky to still have him at 15 yrs. My Newman will be dead a year this August, he was just 10 yrs. old and I WISH I were in her possition right now to be able to be given an option of getting him help right away. I think we are all wasting our breath. If his teeth are infected they are probably this way because they were not taken care of and let to get this bad. And, the fact that she has to post on here looking for "Free" medical advice while he is in pain rather then bring him immediately to an emergency vet says a lot. Not to mention the fact that she's upset over his peeing. MY GOD. Elaine |
