I am sold for Dr. Pete as a fantastic explainer of full vet concepts
My baby (mini schnauzer) is in hospital right now after intensive care to stabilise him first and had a cystotomy performed this afternoon. Very very costly. Your video was an exact textbook example of what has happened to him. He had hundreds of stones - several large and lots of small and sandy like forming ones - being sent to the US for analysis of composition. I’m do very grateful I got him to the vet in time his bladder was imminently going to burst. After intensive IV fluid therapy, pain relief and catheterisation the surgery has been successful and I pray to take him home later today. Thankyou for a very informative video on bladder stones!!! 🙏🏻❤️😭💔
Great video, Dr. Pete! Very informative.
Very helpful. Thank you
Thanks brother it's help's a lot...
My dog Midna just had surgery today shes usually lives with at my sisters house but she spends most time here now but she said shes been have urinary problems for a few months my sister knew too but just gave her chewables which didnt do much but oneday she peed blood in the house so we rushed her to the vet and she had so many bladder stones and they here huge but luckily they took them put and nows shes on a special diet
Our dog had to have a cystotomy last week due to a clump of over 20 struvite stones that we had NO idea he had. This video helped a TON with understanding how they form, how they are treated, and how to prevent them. I actually ordered the Hill's C/D food yesterday and will be starting our sweet boy on that in the next day or two. Thank you SO much for this video!
Actually that food is what vets are told to give at vet school it is not a good food read the first ingredient corn. Come on don't give this junk food to your baby. 😮😢😢😢
You know there’s a HUGE class action law suit going on for hills food cuz it’s killing dogs and making them sick…DON BOT FEED THAT FOOD!
This was very helpful
Not after dry kibble was mentioned to help treat a dog with kidney prob . ...
Gosh, this all sounds terribly expensive!
my dog has them , I think it's so many because my brother don't listen to me and he always listen to his great friends and now the dog illness worsen and I don't think he'll live longer sadly can't do something for him than few tips I get
Never again your video is awesome ..so sad I wished
I got a proper diagnosis
Did ur dog die?
What do I do if I’ve got all the meds an my dog won’t eat for me to give it to him? He was in the hospital for two days and came back to us just about to same as we brag him in
What do you fo gor a 17 yr old small dog with bladder/kidney stones who had late stage CRF
I’m soooo confused here!!! My dog had what I was told was cysteine stones but in his bladder cuz he had a blockage and couldn’t pee…I couldn’t afford any after care cuz the surgery costed me 7 grand so I’m trying to figure this out my self…looking up what I can feed him ect and I’m getting contradicting info ugh…some say chicken has cysteine and some say it’s low in cysteine?! I realize your not a vet and can’t give me direct answers but some suggestions and tips etc would be MUCH appreciated here…
What medications are in these so-called special hills or royal Caine diets. Other than drinking water more what other measures are we do to make our dogs ( cats) less likely to have bladder stones? I my self am a raw or lightly cooked feeder, my cats as well as dog have a balanced carnivore diet. I feed raw bones as well as a variety of meat and organs from 3-4 different animals.
Porque se producen los calculos en vegiga Como prevenir Si son carnivoros. Gracias
I want help from you
My vet mis diagnosed said he had pancreatitis. Just reminded me he was old and well if I needed to anything g is to do his teeth...I tried talking to him two weeks later over bladder leakage now...he didnt really seem it being a matter of urgency..not offered anything g xray etc...I felt compelled that it wasn't a problem a month passes some days he was running around d some times he just seemed tired but because he referred him as being old I took his word..everytime you walked in it cost 200 so I was a bit feeling like if it's serious thr doctor would be interested..well 1 month he stopped peeing ..lost some weight thought due to what I was told ..found out he had stones...two day later he died😢😢😢no proper physical exam. Etc..or even offered any other ideas. Just possible catch a sample of his urine..said maybe he has diabetes but two weeks earlier when I went in he said he was checking but never gave me the info..or explained snything he now suffered toxicity and died it was horrible horrible...
Thanks for this information
My dog got some stones removed like 4 months ago and yesterday we had to take her to the emergency care because she was peeing blood and the stones came back. The stones look like peanuts. The veteran have never seen that kind the stone. Now I’m waiting on the results and I don’t know what else can be. My dog is a shitzu and she’s 4 years old 😢
How’s the update?
Found out today that my dog had bladder stones and scheduled a surgery for next week. The vet said that they had been there for a while but we only noticed her seeming to strain to pee a few weeks ago and thought it was probably just an infection. She hasn’t really been acting out of the ordinary other than needing to pee a little more often, she’s always been very active and playful and a happy dog. I’m not sure if it’s our fault for not catching it sooner:( I feel awful like there could have been some warning signs earlier that I missed and if we found out sooner we could avoid surgery. Now she’s going to have to go through this whole ordeal of being scared and confused and likely in some pain and not understanding why and it breaks my heart. The vet said that it’s a pretty routine procedure and I don’t really need to worry but I am nervous about something going wrong.
Schnauzers get them females most huh?
Royal Canin is a crappy dog food they gave it to me
I threw it out. So
Bad. Hills is crappy too
My dog has this too
How did the surgery go. My dog’s surgery is scheduled end of Jan. Any advice for post surgery care? His stone is very small, but big enough that it could block the urethra and cause an emergency if left alone. He’s 10. I’m up at night worried about this surgery for him.
@@me67226I think I would rather listen to an experienced vet.
What can I give him to eat?
what if my dogs only peeing once or twice a day?
Good content, ty.
The constant snapping was.. distracting though.
How can I contact with you
STOP RECOMMENDING AND FEEDING PROCESSED FEED!!

My 10- yr old Havanese has a very small calcium oxalate stone and the Vet wants to dissolve it with a diet change to Royal Canin urinary S/O. Every video I’ve watched has said this type of stone cannot be dissolved with diet!! Why would they be recommending this??? My understanding is this type of restrictive diet can prevent further stones from forming, but it will not dissolve an existing stone. We are supposed to return in a month with another urine sample ,but I am left feeling like I’m not doing enough. This Vet has never steered me wrong, so I’m quite confused as to why this would be recommended . The Vet even told me he is “not concerned about it” because it is so small… but it’s clearly irritating my dog’s bladder, or pushing against it ,since my dog has to pee a lot…. which is why we saw him in the first place. Thoughts?
Hello I am in the same boat my Jana has had 3 Surgeries on the same diet Royal Canine s/o but the stones keep coming back now I have her on antibiotics again and she has a cluster of stones and we have to wait 4 weeks to see if she passes them if not then surgery 😢
Ya my vet told me no kibble and then prescribed kibble
@@lo3133im so sorry to hear that. 😢 We went back to the vet a month later and of course , the calcium oxalate stone looked exactly the same after being on the prescription diet. His advice? Stay on the prescription diet, no other food, and surgery at end of the month to remove the stone. Royal Canin S/O Has chicken by products as one of the first ingredients. This is what’s left after an animal is slaughtered and can even include feces amongst other disgusting things. I am completely appalled by this food and have no intent to feed it to my dog for life. However, trying to figure out the proper home-cooked diet for a dog with calcium oxalate stones is like walking through a maze. No one gives you a straight answer, or Information is contradictory, or the diet it’s just too complicated, or too expensive ( if you add raw organ meats), or too simple ( like a basic stir fry), lacking the proper vitamins and nutrients added back in. Seems like I’m going to have to spend more money with a holistic vet to get the answer.
My 5 yr old bulldog died a few hours after having bladder surgery. I was led to believe they weren't that serious. Obviously, they are.
My German Shepherd has sand like stones all over his bladder and I am told this is a lifelong renal disease .
Hills is being charged with knowingly endangering dogs with their food. DONT FEED HILLS TO YOUR DOG. Theres a legit lawsuit against Hills 2-18-2024
What!???
Omg I’m going to the vet tomorrow for my chihuahua she’s been on Hills for a year and now she’s very sick. I’m sure her stones have gotten worse. She won’t eat and that’s not her
