She has the 25 mg. tablets which I cut into four pieces. She gets a quarter tablet in the morning and a quarter tablet at night. She also is being treated for calcium oxalate crystals. We had her on R.C. S/ O hydrolyzed because she is allergic to chicken. She has been on this food for six months and my vet would do an ultra sound and say no more crystals. I am in Arizona now and took her in and they did an ultra sound and took a sterile urine sample. She was full of calcium oxalate crystals and they said only a sterile sample of urine is what she should of had. Now she was taken off her food and put on another and we go back Feb. 10 for a check up. Would these calcium oxalate crystals cause bed wetting? My baby will be eight years old in April and we have had pee problems after she was spayed. Any ideas? |
Spaying can result in incontinence (bed wetting), especially as a spayed dog gets older, so it's not necessarily related to the calcium oxalate crystals. Here's a good article on possible causes of incontinence written by a vet:
What You Need to Know About Spay Urinary Incontinence in Female Dogs . Although bladder crystals could cause incontinence, it could also be the spaying. I hope your vet is able to figure it out and come up with an effective treatment, and that your dog's new diet helps clear up the calcium oxalate crystals!
