Dogs accidentally care and raise will cause many problems. Maybe it may be food poisoning when eating the wrong thing, or inadequate hygiene and cleaning. Anyway, a little discomfort will affect the dog's body. The causes of urinary tract infection in dogs are actually similar to those in humans. Most of them are directly caused by bacteria, and a few are caused by fungi, protozoa or viruses.
Urgent infections in dogs are divided into upper urinary tract infections and lower urinary tract infections. Upper urinary tract infections refer to pyelonephritis, and lower urinary tract infections include urethritis and cystitis. Pyelonephritis is further divided into acute pyelonephritis and chronic pyelonephritis.
【Symptoms】
How is the urinary tract infection in dogs caused? Pay attention to 8 aspects to reduce the chance of illness
1. The more obvious symptom of dogs is hematuria, but because dogs are mostly urinating outside, we often cannot find that dogs are bleeding in time.
2. Also, a light yellow liquid will flow out from the place where the dog pees, and the dog will keep licking it.
3. Dogs always don’t urinate cleanly, or they seem very painful when peeing.
【Reason】
1. Dogs hold their urine for too long, so don’t let the dogs hold their urine for more than 12 hours. It can be convenient for them to go out twice a day.
2. Bacterial urinary tract infection caused by moisture, and this problem is easily caused by the hair on the dog's belly during rainy season or when the hair on the dog is always wet.
3. Some dogs can also cause urinary tract infection after eating spicy and irritating food.
4. Urinary tract infection caused by kidney problems.
【Treatment】
Urinary tract infection is not a disease that parents can cure for dogs. Of course, if it is inconvenient to bring your dog to see a doctor, you can also give it some broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory drugs to treat it. But if you have the conditions and have a safer way, take the dog to the hospital for urine test, and ask the doctor to confirm what was wrong with the dog, and then give it medicine. In addition, doctors will prescribe some injections or even intravenous injections for dogs with severe conditions, so that the dog will recover faster.
