Cooper may have a urinary tract infection. If he does have diabetes, it isn't necessarily expensive to treat. The biggest expense is getting the blood checked when getting started and an occasional re-check.

Bear weighs 20.5 lbs and I buy insulin once a month. That costs $16.00. His food is a special food from the vet for about the same money. If I fed him a good quality pet food, it would cost about the same.

Bear is also on thyroid meds, but they don't cost more than $5 a month.

A larger dog, of course, would cost more because everything would need to be in larger doses.

I hope it's just (Just?) an UTI.
