Frequent urination male dogs

Common Questions and Answers about Frequent urination male dogs

frequent-urination

Now this may be tricky ... particularly with a dach ... if you can, try to catch some urine in a clean jar and when you take your dog to the vet, take the sample with you for testing. I would strongly suggest you take your dog to the vet sooner rather than later, so a propper diagnosis can be made and the appropriate treatment started.

I have a 6 year old male miniature schnauzer who urinates in the same room in the house very frequently, even when I'm home. I of course never catch him, only see the evidence hours later. This is a new house, so there have never been animals in the house before. When I'm home, I let him out frequently, but he still does this. When I'm at work, I kennel him, so of course there is no problem, but I hate to kennel him during the day when I'm home.

(He's had repeated infections before, but those were very obvious with bloody urine and frequent, small accidents). This time we're pretty stumped b/c of the appearance of his urine. No blood at all in it. It is highly, highly dilute, even when his water intake is restricted. Plus, the vomiting shouldn't be going on. The vet is a bit mystified by it. All his chemistries (he had an extensive panel) came back completely normal yesterday. CBC only showed an elevated WBC.

I'm just frustrated as is the vet with these frequent UTI's in a male neutered dog. Its uncomfortable for him, and at around $600 a pop for a UTI workup each time, expensive for us. He's had plain radiographs that have always been normal. Ideas or suggestions? As always, thanks a million!

The second youngest, the Siamese who is 4 years old began to change his normal skiddish behavior to extremely agressive when the newest was around. Over months time it got worse and he has begun urinating in the dog's food bowl, on our kitchen counter top and on curtains. He poo's in the corner in the office. He won't go downstairs and use the boxes anymore at all. I don't know how to stop this behavior.

Yes, there are products made especially for dogs (female and male) for just this problem, and females in heat. They use velcro for easy on and off, and you just put a feminine pad inside to catch the fluids. Do a Google search on 'dog diapers" and you'll see plenty of options to choose from. Also, can you install a doggy door? I recall one poster on the Dogs Forum who had an old, somewhat incontinent basset hound who just couldn't quite get through the door.

If the cat is lying on the carpet and walks away, the dog will actually lick that spot repeatedly. My dog is a sniffer but it just has been crazy the way he's always trying to sniff this cat & where he's been.(He sniffs the female cat but nothing like this new obsession with my older cat) Is it possible the cat has cancer or is dying? Would a cat this old survive surgery if he had cancer?

Struvite Crystals are most common and the symptoms include frequent urination, straining to urinate and blood in the urine. Calcium Oxalate: Calcium Oxalate crystals tend to affect more males than females. The pH in dogs with these types of crystals is usually acidic or neutral. It is thought that some dogs that are more prone to these types of stones have an inherited weakness that prevents them from forming nephrocalein, which prevents calcium oxalate stone formation.

Usually when he gets a bladder infection, its obvious b/c he has blood and dribbles smelly urine. This was totally different--just gallons of clear urine. The vet said dogs will drink more when they have a UTI, and thus will urinate more. He probably needs a UA and a culture. I hope that's all it is. Jake has to be evaluated for a stone, if this happens again. Apparently, if a male dog has UTI's, there is commonly a stone present.

Hello Frankie....If this is indeed a Disc injury, your dog should not be walking around on it's own.....Complete cage rest is Vital for weeks to let the disk heal......That information is posted above in this thread...... Read everything you can on IVDD (Above)....Yes, this can be reversed, but you must do it correctly.......Steroids are the first line of defense, but you also need PAIN medication along with them.......Shaking is a sign of pain......

Since the prostate is close in relation to the rectum it could be irritating that part of the urethra causing the sensation of urination. Do you urinate normaly when you do urinate? what is the amount of urine? Lots or hardly any at all? If you urinate normal amounts of urine than there has to be a reason for it. Are your stools firm and possibly causing the prostate to become irritated? Perhaps you could change your diet to ensure that the stool is not hard.

Can tacrolimus eye drops and Cyclosporine ointment cause cancer in dogs? My precious dog, baby and best friend was diagnosed just last week with Transitional Cell Carcinoma in his bladder. It is a rapid growing cancer. I am completely heartbroken and am wondering if there was something I could've done to prevent this. He has been on these two eye medications for about a year. His name is Duke and he is a beautiful tri-colored collie and is a little over 10 years old.

I have a 7 year old male Irish Setter and he suddenly in the last week has started doing the exact same thing. He had his yearly shots last week and was put on an antacid for megesaphagus that he has had since he was 1. And at the same time I changed his food to a Herring/adult formula. Same brand just different flavor. The moaning started a week ago, he is not in pain and not asleep.

Male Age: 8 Years, Male Weight: 20-25 His routine: He used to be a very Hail-n-hearty dog. A very active and a Strong dog. But was intouch with other domestic dogs as well. Symptoms ----------- -> He lost his Activeness: From past many days, he was sitting dull and very reluctant to move even a bit. So, I got concerned. He is particularly not ready to move his back-right limb. It seems like something is hurting in the lower abdomen.

My friends dog Mudge (basically a mutt, probably some golden, lab, and a couple other breeds) has always had issues. He is almost 3 years old now, she got him as puppy. She got him as a single mother of two girls. She thinks he was a rescue from Katrina...was told that he was from a rescue down south that was overflowing right after the hurricane occured. He has always had behavioral issues... but are becoming worse and more frequent over the past couple months.

For 3 weeks, i endured pain and sleepless nights but the doctors could not find anything wrong. What was weird was that the pain and frequent urinating was more irritating and more persistent during night time. The doctor prescribed me antibiotics but that didn't work either. So she suggested to wash the intimate area with Betadine (an antiseptic liquid).

the dog is a 'working dog'...if the dog gets a lot of exercise...if it is cold weather. (And usually, in hot weather, dogs need a little less, though I know that's not the case with your dog.) Another small point. When you feed them, do you feed them together? Do you see who eats what? Or do you walk away when they are eating? Sometimes a 'greedier' dog will snaffle part of the other one's food! I have caught my dog doing that if she is fed alongside another dog.

This is unusual in a neutered male, so he's been on antibiotics for a long time. This morning he has to go in to have some urine aspirated for another urinalysis and culture. Hopefully, he'll be in the clear. If he gets another UTI, he'll have to have an ultrasound to rule out stones. He's already had an xray that didn't show any, but apparently some stones don't show up on radiographs. A bladder stone can be loaded with bacteria, and it can shed enough to give a dog repeated UTI's.

Is he licking himself frequently? Infections in dogs' penises often cause such a discharge - possible, I guess, that he caught it while at the vet's if he wasn't having the discharge previously (you vet should check that bloodwork to be sure it wasn't already showing up. Probiotics shouldn't cause it; they'd affect his gut flora, not his urine. You should call your vet - it will probably need to be checked to be sure not a bacterial infection.

I am a 21 year old male and have been having problems with frequency and urgency of urination for about 6 months now. The problem began soon after I was forced to pick up my dog, who was being attacked by another dog, though I'm not completely sure the symptoms are related to that. After the incident involving my dog, I experienced some muscle soreness and stiffness in my lower back.

Do you know of anyone who lives nearby who has an un-neutered male dog? (Both dogs during this experiment would have to be leashed!) I can tell you that dog would be MORE than normally interested in her (particularly her rear end) if she were on heat. And you would be able to tell without a doubt. It would not be subtle. The dog could diagnose this for you! Try it. But don't wait too long to do this. If you can't do it in the next few hours, assume she is ill, and take her to the vet.

There are many causes of frequent urination including diabetes mellitus or diabetes insipidus, kidney problems, urinary tract infections and more. For starters have a urinalysis, and blood work performed. Don't forget behavioral causes. Has there been any changes in the environment that could cause a desire for more attention? Any new additions to the family?

[17] Mammary cancer is extremely rare in male dogs. [17] In dogs, the chances of developing a mammary tumor increase with age and vary with breed.[13,17] There is no apparent protective effect of having a litter for dogs or cats. [17,20] About half of canine mammary tumors are malignant, whereas 85-90% of feline mammary tumors are malignant.

Could be the anal glands need to be relieved, somehow they get blocked up and a vet will squeeze on them somehow, and out comes this unpleasant-smelling liquid stuff, but I was thinking that was male dogs, but I think females can have a similar problem. You can do it yourself if you know how to, maybe online you can find something, but the vet is really the way to go on this until you've seen it done.

Dogs and cats with urinary tract infections will usually urinate much more often than usual, and they may have fevers as well. In male dogs, blood in the urine may mean that the prostate gland, has become infected. Dogs with an infected prostate gland typically have a swollen penis and testicles. Pets that have gotten into harmful substances such as rat poison will sometimes have bloody urine. (Other signs of poisoning include vomiting, diarrhea, or restlessness.

Dogs catch Leptospirosis mostly from contact with recently urbanized animals such as racoons, not other dogs. Some veterinarians are vaccinating dogs less frequently as they get older, so you should discuss that possibility with your veterinarian. As a younger dog, Caesar should probably be fully vaccinated now, and then possibly you can rotate some of the vaccinations in future years.

My 2 year old male cat seems different to me lately. It is almost as if he is depressed. He is not as interactive as he previously was and my female cat (we got them at the same time 2 years ago) doesn't peak his interest like she has always done in the past. He just lays around like he is sleeping but I notice that his eyes are open and when i try to get his attention he doesnt move his head or get up or anything....he just moves his eyes around.

It was then that I remembered another of our dogs who would get frequent UTI's with pain in rear area. I checked his urine (followed him around the yard to catch in a cup) as he seemed to be trying to go more, and I could tell by the color, odor, thickness of the urine that it was a UTI. Had us in the Emergency vet on Thanksgiving morning. I took him right away as soon as I saw the urine and I brought it with me so they didn't have to cause any more distress to him trying to get pee out.

The H3N8 virus (canine influenza) is a good example of how an equine virus mutated and began to affect dogs. But, some of our companion animals, like ferrets, are more susceptible to the Type A influenza viruses. So, it was no surprise to most veterinarians when the ferrets mentioned above tested positive. The same fact is true of birds, but we have only seen H1N1 show up in turkeys to date. Of course, we are all well aware that the virus can be transmitted to hogs.
