oliver has been on rc so canned dog food now for 1 month. the vet said he had a couple of crystals in his urine. 2 urine tests were done, one i brought in and the other they put a catherer in and took his urine. he also had a sono done and the vet said there were no stones, but the vet said that if he has a lower urininary problem they cannot see it on the sono, that maybe a tiny stone could be there and they would never see it. i thought they could see everything with a sono. so now its 1 month and he is still straining ,but not all the time, and sometimes when he goes again after the 1st pee , the amount is very small. does anyone know what the next step would be? should i keep him on this rc so food? and for how long?
oliver is 1 1/2 yrs old

any advice, please help
