My 10 year old female, spayed Chihuahua was having accidents in the house frequently and straining to pee. I took her to the vet and they found bacteria in her urine, so they put her on antibiotics for 10 days.
We noticed she was still acting the same, so we took her back and an X-ray was done. During the X-ray, they found 3 concerning things:
It has been 2 weeks since her surgery, and I noticed she is peeing blood. Took her to the vet today and there is still blood in her urine. The vet wants to give her an antibiotic shot now. I’m worried about her having THREE courses of antibiotics.
Also, the antihistamines didn’t help with her snorting and reverse sneezing (which hopefully is from her trachea and not her heart) so she prescribed some kind of cough suppressant elixir.
She is also on a prescription diet to break down the kidney stones, but the vet said there’s only a 50% chance because of the type of stone.
I’m not sure what I’m even asking, but it just seems like such a lot for my tiny little girl. Is it bad to give that much antibiotic treatment?

- Bladder and kidney stones
- small amount of fluid around her heart
- a partially collapsed trachea.
