Comments by Dr Sing K Y

Another two attempts to phone the owners were not successful. On Jun 21, 12, the owners came with the complaint of painful left hip and re-stocking of anti-seizure medication which must be given daily to prevent seizures. Jun 21, 12 was 38 days after the surgery.



Outcome of surgery: Good. On Jun 21, 12, the couple is very happy that the dog is active and no longer drips dark brown blood and passes blood clots everywhere. They said the urine is clear and has no blood. The dog is able to control his bladder during the daytime but not at night. The dog weighed 15 kg compared to 16 kg during first visit but is putting on weight. Bladder palpation by Dr Sing elicited a painful whine from the Beagle. The bladder was around the size of the tennis ball. Catherisation by Dr Daniel Sing did not produce urine. The wife came later in the afternoon with a bottle of urine collected directly from the dog.



Results: This 2nd urine test indicated UTI and demonstrated the presence of blood. The lab reports will be given to the owner at the next visit.



2nd urine test: Jun 21, 12 pH 7, SG 1.008, Protein 1+, Ketones -ve, Blood 3+, WBC 48, RBC 351, Bacteria 3+
