The causes of urinary stones in dogs:

1. If the owner usually feeds tap water or has an unclean diet, it is easy for the dog to suffer from urinary stones.

2. Food problem, mainly lean meat, liver and other foods with very high protein content as the staple food. The calcium and phosphorus content are very high, which can easily lead to the formation of urinary stones.

3. Urinary tract infection. Infection of the urinary system causes the urothelial cells to be damaged and fall off, resulting in casts, leading to the formation of stone cores, etc.

How to prevent urinary stones in dogs:

1. Drinking water. Ensure that the dog’s drinking water is clean, hygienic and sterile, and ensure that the dog drinks enough water.

2. Maintain a balanced and nutritious diet, and do not feed foods with single nutrients or high purine content for a long time.

3. Increase the amount of exercise and sunbathing time for dogs, promote calcium absorption and metabolism, adjust the ratio of calcium and phosphorus, and play a certain role in preventing stones.
