Katie's vet visit


Katie is our little girl Boxer - Tim washes her face!

Katie went to the vets today with her urine sample. I was more optomistic as it didnt look as concentrated/cloudy. Unfortunately it still has blood in it. More antibiotics.

They are going to request her records from original vets & I had taken the itemised bill we had got in Jan of all the scans, x-rays, tests etc she'd had carried out

The vet says if this course of antibiotics dont clear it, she would like to repeat Katie's bloodwork. Think Katie is a mystery to them. The only *course of action left is open surgery & must admit its not a route I would favour, even if they found something in open surgery it may be something that was not correctible, so please keep her in your thoughts

Poor Katie - I do hope that the vet can make a diagnosis without surgery.

This has been ongoing for some time, over a year. After we moved i did consider keeping her with the original vets, however its such a long way from where we now live, nearly 70 miles. The vets we are now with are much the same with regards being right up to date with all latest equipment etc. Theyre a big practise that specialise in Pets, Exotics & Farm animals
