I took him back to the emergency vet, who prescribed ciprofloxacin for him (750 mg), 2 pills per day. The urination inside stopped immediately. However, he HATED the pills. He stopped eating entirely 3-4 days into the antiobitic. I became concerned but continued to give him the pills. After the 9th day (only 2 pills left), I called his regular vet and asked what he thought about me discontinuing the antiobitc. He said I should go ahead and quit.
What antibiotic is better to take for a tooth infection/ absess tooth Ciprofloxacin or Bactrim?

It is difficult to say if they are due to the underlying disease or due to ciprofloxacin. You should consult your doctor for a complete evaluation and diagnosis.
As I understand it, you have had discomfort with urination for several weeks but no other visible abnormalities (sores, discharge, other). Apparently you are taking ciprofloxacin but you do not say for how long or if it has changed your symptoms at all.
You also note that you have had two sex partners in the past few weeks, one of whom you have had condom protected oral and vaginal sex with and another partner with whom you have more recently had unprotected vaginal sex with.
You can find a holistic vet in your area by googling for one and also from the international veterinary acupuncture society, American veterinary acupuncture association, American holistic veterinary medical association, Chi Institute for vet acupuncture and herbal med, etc.

I'm a veterinary nurse and on my feet all day. What healthy snacks can I have to keep me going throughout The day?
t say where you live, but if I were you I would look into any veterinary colleges in your state. They have state of the art equipment when it comes to diagnostics and even though veterinary students work on the animals, they are just inches away from graduating and they work under the close supervision of their professors, who are veterinary professors and doctors themselves.
As far as payment goes, look into Care Credit.
Dear Robino54,
Your post includes several elements about which I would like to comment.
Pica, eating nonfood items, is a common complaint in dogs and occurs for a variety ofr reasons, and also at times for no discernable reason. Do your best to prevent it.
That said it is not uncommon for kidne disease patients to be inappetant. Treating the causes when possible will be more effective than simply trying to stimulate appetite.
See further detail below.
Klebsiella pnenmoniae and Streptoccous agalactia were found present on my penile head. Then doctor prescribed Ciprofloxacin 500 mg tablets, 2 times daily for 7 days.
However the Ciprofloxacin could not work and the Balanitis still persists. I am still applying the “Uni-Mizole-HC” cream to stop the inflammation on my penile head.
May I ask you a few questions about my Balanitis,
1. What do you think is the cause of my Balanitis ? Antibiotic and anti-fugal drugs seem do not work to relieve.
2.
Most referral or veterinary teaching hospitals , or veterinary schools have veterinary opthalmolgists. Ask your vet for a referral to one in your area. Don't be afraid, just explain to him that you do not want to happen with your other pug to happen to her. If are still uncomfortable with this you can search your self online at: American College of Veterinary Opthalmologists, or the American Society of Veterinary Opthalmologists (http://www.asvo.org/). Good Luck!
