You really need to insist this vet do more tests, or find a new vet who will listen to you. You are Charlie's main advocate, and the vet probably thought this was a simple infection, but it's clear that it's not a "simple" infection, and it could be stones.
Katie was not constantly whimpering, didn't really make a peep, even though her pee was BRIGHT BLOOD RED. Not pink, but RED. the only time she showed she was hurting was if you picked her up the wrong way and she would try to snap at you. It just seemed as if she was not a playful dog, bc she was in such pain, when in fact she plays constantly now that she's healthy (and she's lost over 1 lb!).
