Organic, probably available, but absolutely discuss with your vet as problems can result from duplicating effects of meds... maybe get rid of the crystals first and discuss an organic maintenance for when she's cleared.
They did not put her on any meds which confuses me. They said that she did not have a UTI so there was no need for antibiotics. They just put her on prescription dog food. He said that the different diet should do the trick. I feel so bad for her bc she barks and then licks herself. I think I would of felt better if they did put her on meds. I don't want her to get bladder stones. This poor dog has been through enough coming from a puppy mill and nearly dying 3 times the first year we had her. Gosh I wish I knew about puppy mills 6 yrs ago. I was just unaware when my daughter bought her at a pet store I though that is where you get dogs. That is how dumb I was back then. I guess you learn a lot when you have to go through things.
