Tip For The Day

Urinary infections in dogs are a costly visit to the vet.  You will have the expense of a vet visit, lab work, medication, then a follow-up vet visit and additional lab work to determine if the infection has been taken care of.  One of my females was having urinary infections often and I asked the vet if there was something I could do to maintain a healthier urinary tract for her.  Their advice was an expensive prescription dog food.  I decided to try cranberry pills for her instead.  The urinary infections stopped.


Cranberry pills will not cure a urinary infection, you will need to take your dog to a vet to cure the infection.  However, cranberry pills are beneficial in maintaining a healthy urinary tract.
