bladder infection?? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I have a question...
The past couple of days, Sadie has been going potty fine, but after she pees, she keeps squatting like shes going to pee again, but she never does. She does it when shes done peeing, and then through the day too. Is it possible that she has a bladder infection or something? Im going to take her to the vet if it keeps up, but I'm just wondering if anyone might have any ideas.
Oh and shes been passing gas quite often too

Thanks guys!

its possible that she might have a urinary tract infection. Is she drinking more water then usual too?

your best bet is to collect a urine sample and bring her to the vet to get it and her checked out.

It sounds like she most likely has a UTI. I would also collect a sample and take her into the vet tomorrow. This is exactly why I ordered the Pet Checkup strips for instances like this (and also early detection of diabetes, etc.)

Been there too... definitely sounds suspect of a urinary track infection. This can be quite miserable for them. Get her checked asap... med's will make her feel better rather quickly.... Good luck....
