I went through it with my male cat. He needed an emergency surgery because he was completely blocked and couldn't urinate at all and was in severe pain. He remained in the vet hospital for 2 1/2 days with a urinary catheter in place to prevent re-blocking. You can seek a second opinion if you want to, in some minor cases the prescription food will desolve the stones, but if they're big or there are alot, surgery is unfortunatly needed. You can ask your vet about the prescription food, but they are the only one who can tell you if it's an option for your dog's particular case or not. |
