Almost all the vets will advise antibiotics for treatment of your dog's UTI, but that is not necessarily the best track of action. You have to understand that antibiotics restrain symptoms of the sickness, rather than curing the issues which gave birth to it in the first place; they will create more problems in the long run and can actually make your dog's health worse. This is due, in large part, because antibiotics cause tons of side effects including nausea which is no fun for you either. Your best option is to go with the natural treatment route.
Steps to Cure and Prevent Your Dog's UTI
- The first step is that you need to keep your puppy or dog healthy so he or she needs quite a bit of regular exercise.
- Feed your puppy or dog only quality foods, do not go for cheap, oily or damp dog foods, the few dollars in savings is not worth the possible negative outcome.
- Make sure that your dog drinks a lot of fresh water for proper digestion and urination. Also ensure that your dog is taken out for a stroll every day at the same times so that he or she will not be forced to hold in its urine for a prolonged period of time.
- Treat your dog with homeopathic remedies, which will not only cure the infection but also help to prevent it. There are a wide variety of options available both on the Internet and at pet supply stores. If your dog has a history of UTI issues then you should use these natural remedies even when the infection is not occurring in order to ensure that it doesn't happen again.
So now, all you have to do is take proper care of your dog's health and always use common sense. Before choosing any remedy it is important that you check out the ingredients which should include berberis, uva ursi or cantharis; all of these are great for treating a UTI and completely side effect free.
