my tucker has been diagnosed with a liver shunt, and it caused him to have bladder crystals. he did a lot of excessive squatting because his bladder was blocked and irritated. im not sure this is the problem since you have a female and no liver shunt, but you might want to check and see if she has a slight blockage or something of that nature.

good luck
