Buddy went to the vet yesterday afternoon. He is being treated with some antibiotics for UTI.
Buddy is not drinking more or less than usual, but it does appear that he is not fully emptying his bladder when he goes out and he is going out to pee more frequently. There hasn't been any blood or tinge to the urine that was noticeable.
I am trying to go out with him now so I can watch and see if he is emptying his bladder more. Last night, an hour or so after taking the first of his antibiotics, I went out with him and he peed for a good long time. I checked the bedding where he slept last night and he stayed dry...so we may be on to something with his bladder being still too full.
My son is home during the day since school is out for summer so I have instructed him to let Buddy out frequently and to keep an eye on him to make sure he actually goes.
Sometimes I think Buddy is afraid he is going to miss out on something so he doesn't fully relieve himself.
We're going to watch him and monitor how it goes over the next 10 days and if he is still having trouble then Dr. will get more in depth.
