that's great news Sharon! So pleased to hear he is doing well

I take it he will still need the full extensive course of antibiotics though? To make sure those pesky bugs are gone for ever.

Keep it up Yogi, you'll soon be heading home

I would think he would need the full course, but 2 days clear I am so happy

Took the boys wee up to be tested, just had a call to say although colour much better there is still signs of infection so he needs to have another 20 days supply of Baytril 300mg per day and I have to take another sample up in two weeks

I have been asked to get him to drink more as this could help speed recovery, if anyone has any ideas how I can get him to drink more it would love to hear

put bacardi in it?

That would work for me!!!! not so sure good for his kidneys unless we want to pickle them

I went and got some tripe today so am thinking of making him a very smelly soup

Tripe soup seems to be doing the trick

More ideas though he might get bored with this

You could boil up a few bones & give him the water

That's what I did with Rosie, boiled up some chicken carcasses and left it to cool. She thought it was scrummy, and it really helped.

I also give mine tea to drink on a hot day. Or 50/50 milk and water (though milk doesn't agree with all dogs, it hasn't given mine any problems)

Ice cubes to play with? Maybe freeze some of the chicken broth.

Or just soak his kibble.

If you can feed him all raw for a while, that is 25% water.



With my cats who need plenty of water, I add it to their sachet / tin of wet food. It's surprising how much you can add in.

His kibble is soaked, and he has raw about three times a week more if I have it, will try the other suggestions as well

What about making a sloppy soup with a half or a full tin of tuna?

The smell is strong so that should tickle his tatebuds

How is Yogi doing now? Is he any closer to going home to his Mummy Olivia?!!!

He is doing well, I think I will take his wee to be tested again next week but it is clear and he is very lively and happy

Great news!

He made me giggle tuesday such a lovely boy coming right out of his shell :))x

That is good news

Great news, keep up the good work on Yogi!
