Bladder inflammation caused by dog ​​stones will cause the dog to urinate frequently, making it difficult and painful to urinate. Sometimes hematuria and later anuria will occur. If these symptoms occur, the breeder should take the dog to the pet hospital for examination and treatment in time to avoid missing the best treatment period and worsening the condition.

Causes of stones in dogs

1. Dogs’ long-term lack of drinking water causes urine concentration, resulting in excessive salt concentration in urine and promoting the formation of stones. .

2. Bladder infections in dogs are mostly caused by Staphylococcus, Proteus and other infections, which cause damage to the bladder epithelium and cause it to fall off and form stones.

3. Ingesting too much vitamin D will damage the proximal convoluted tubules, affect the reabsorption function of dogs, increase the secretion of calcium and oxalic acid in urine, thereby promoting the reaction of calcium oxalate to form stones.

4. Breeders feed too much animal offal and lean pork. These foods contain a lot of phosphorus and calcium, as well as a lot of magnesium. Long-term feeding of these foods can easily lead to the development of urolithiasis. If the food contains too many mineral elements, it can also induce stones.
