Have you ever seen an actual bladder stone?
I bet you can spot this one on the xray!
This is a common problem and any breed can be affected.
Stones form when urine is very concentrated, crystals will form and then grow and attach to one another.
This process takes a long time, especially to grow to the size seen in our xray and post op photo, 5cm long like an egg!
Pets usually will show signs of urinary problems, like straining to p*e, accidents in the house and blood in their urine. I do have to say that they are also very good at hiding this from us, until things are quite dramatic as per our stone case today.
If your pet shows any of these signs, get us a "wee" sample and book a check up for them today.....
