Wondering if anyone here has ever used an AZO strip to test for a UTI on their dog?? It tests for nitrates.

I am wondering if it would work as nitrates show up in a dogs urine if it has a UTI.

Neither of my dogs have UTI's....and I would make sure they got treated ASAP if they had one as I know they'd need a round of antibiotics. Just thinking it might be a quick way to determine if that's what's going on.
