Thanks everyone for your answers. I also found out that Vit C could help so she’s gotten some since yesterday and today her urine is the clearest it’s been in days. I also made her unsalted chicken soup and added it to her food and she loved it. She’s still straining to urinate but not as frequently and today I only had to clean the floor 4 times instead of the 20-30 times I was days ago. So overall an improvement. I’m still waiting to hear her tests results from the vet to know exactly what is causing this issue.

My 4 month old female lab puppy developed a bladder infection. The vet said to feed her their Royal canin SO for urinary problems. I looked at the list of ingredients and can’t feed her that. Two of the ingredients are corn based and pork meat by products. The first antibiotic didn’t seem to work so yesterday she was put on a different one. She has crystals in her urine but not stones. There’s still blood in her urine after 2 doses of the new antibiotic and she’s still straining to urinate. Any ideas of what would be a reccomended food with 4 or 5 stars for this kind of issue? She is currently eating Kirkland Nature’s Domain Salmon, she was on Wellness Puppy at first but it didn’t really work for her. Thanks.

I have been reading all the posts about LB puppies and even though I’ve looked at the list of reccomended foods I still have some questions. Why are some foods on the list but not others of seemingly equivalent quality and highly rated? I’m wondering about Simply Nourish Chicken & Brown Rice Puppy with 5 stars, calcium min 1% not on the list as compared to Innova Puppy with 5 stars on the list but from a company with recalls. I could give more examples as well. Blue Life Protection LB Puppy seems pretty good as far as ingredients or even other Blue formulas but they aren’t on the list. Is Wellness Core Puppy better than just Wellness LB puppy? I’m trying to find the best possible food for a Lab puppy currently on Acana LB puppy. With so many choices it’s getting a little overwhelming knowing what’s the best option. Thanks for any advice.
