  1. Causes of blood in dog urine, how to deal with this? There are many reasons why there may be blood in a dog’s urine, including: UPPER URINARY TRACT CAUSES Sometimes, hematuria can result from urinary tract issues. Sometimes blood in the urine originates in the upper urinary tract that contains the kidneys. Some causes for bleeding in the upper urinary tract in dogs include: KIDNEY INFECTION If you notice blood in dog urine, one or both of your dog’s kidneys could be infected. Although kidney stones are uncommon, they can affect one or both kidneys, causing blood in the urine. IDIOPATHIC RENAL HEMATURIA The word "idiopathic" means "unknown," so this condition refers to the presence of blood in dog urine that originates from the kidneys. Medication, a kidney infection, or problems with the immune system could be the cause. KIDNEY CANCER Although kidney cancer is uncommon in dogs, it can account for the presence of blood in their urine. This type of cancer can spread to other parts of the body or remain in the kidneys. A condition known as renal telangiectasia is characterized by the dilation of numerous small blood vessels in the kidneys. There is a genetic predisposition to this problem in some breeds, such as Welsh corgis, which can result in blood in the urine. How to treat blood in dog urine ?

  2. Treatment depends on the specific cause of the blood; if the problem is a urinary tract infection (UTI), your veterinarian may prescribe antibiotics. On the other hand, surgery may be suggested for bladder cancer or stones. Hematuria can be brought on by diabetes or a metabolic condition like adrenal glands producing too many steroids. Flawless canines who have a past filled with hematuria might have a broadened prostate, where case the veterinarian might suggest the fix. If your dog has bladder stones or crystals in their urine, most veterinarians will prescribe anti- inflammatory or painkiller medication to alleviate its discomfort. They may also suggest a different diet. Certain prescription foods can reduce the formation of stones and improve the pH of the urine, making nutrition an essential component of the treatment of issues with the urinary tract in dogs.
