Thanks for everyones input. I fully trust my vets decision. There are 5 of them, and i trust every single one. He just finished abx on thursday. So if the time comes that they recommend a culture i will do it for sure. I have also worked their long enough to know cultures often come back with no answer!!! So i wouldnt do one if it wasnt necesary. It can often be a waste of time. I have experienced that many times with a previous dog, that had chronic utis.
I am sorry, but I beg to disagree on this statement. With chronic infections, cultures are indicated and are not going to come back frequently with no answer!
