greenish discharge?

PhantomsPrinceWillia · 08-26-2005, 06:15 PM

My dobes both have a greenish discharge and they went to the vet today... they thought tas had vaginitis but it came back negative... they said his is probably normal and they both have crystals in their urine...

they are on science diet

... i already dont like that but.... they are on meds.. but what else could cause greenish discharge... my vet didnt know... and the crystals... aaaah plz help

Crystals in their urine I think can be caused from infection. My boxer/GSD mix was just on meds for a urinary tract infection and my vet said to really keep an eye on him because there were crystals in his urine. Of course.. crystals can lead to kidney stones.

I'm not sure about the greenish discharge, but I know it never hurts to get a second opinion from a different vet.

Good luck! And hope they get better soon!

I htink you are right because it seems like it only gets worse.. but i do not like meds... and i know that i have togive meds that the doc gave me... but... those poor guys are so pitiful they throw up the pills... smart elecks...so i have towatch them for about fifteen minutes but thanks for the info... im getting a second opinion when they go back for their ear retapped...so ill i will ask him what to do.... and what he thinks thanks

I would get a second opinion sooner rather then later.

yes i am going to and i talked to my breeder adn she sold one other dog that had a similar problem and it was to someone here in seattle at least the crystal part of the problem and im thinking the crystals have cause infection and hopefully changing their water to bottled will get rid of it... thanks gonna take em in this week

thanks so much everyone

I hope you get a second opinion soon, it sounds like a urinary tact infection, but could also be pyometra which is deadly. I wouldn't wait to get the dog to a vet, a different vet.

PhantomsPrinceWillia · 08-28-2005, 02:25 PM

okay will do thanks so much.... you guys are so awesome.. thanks will do..

yesiames · 10-03-2005, 10:09 PM

this might sound silly but what exactly are crystals in the urine?

PhantomsPrinceWillia · 10-03-2005, 10:18 PM

well they are protien build up that forms crystals like a bladder stone for you which is a crystal

... not a comfortable thing..

PhantomsPrinceWillia · 10-03-2005, 10:21 PM

okay guys...i did go to the vet she has puppy vaginitis... ugh... and had a uti... as you thought... meds were given but we havent had a check up because she was doing fine..

though i spoke to my breeder and she said that this is the second time she has had a dog sent to seattle that has ended up with crystals... so no more tap water... she said bottled water cleared up the other persons problems

IceyBlueSibes · 10-04-2005, 08:12 AM

Well I'm glad you found out what was wrong! Poor girl...

That's quite a coincidence! I don't think your doggy will be complaining with the change of water!

PhantomsPrinceWillia · 10-04-2005, 08:46 AM

lol i seriously doubt it they drink more water now then they did before... but im having another problem now... they are pottying inside all the time even though i take them out all the time and when im supposed to... well anyway thanks hun... for the thoughts.... she is doing much better still has puppy vaginitis... they said anit-biotics wont help that...
