She could have a resistant strain of bacteria and may need a different type of antibiotic. Also she could have crystals or something else going on. Poor baby girl. :(

I would advice you to take her for further testing. There must be some underlying issue there.

they are putting her on a month long course of antibotics. she has no discharge at all so they are ruling out vaginitis. no bacteria in the test results just white cell but the there could be no bacteria because of the recent antibotics. We waited 7 days until we tested again. sigh. poor girl

Wow, a whole month! That's a lot of antibiotics. While you are giving her those I would recommend also giving daily probiotics, either in pure form or in yogurt, to help create beneficial bacteria during the coarse. I sure hope she will be ok....

My girl Wheezie has had one and it took like 3 weeks of antibiotics. They can determine the crystal content etc. If hers should continue.I wipe Wheezie every time she pees and it helps a lot.Does your girl have a lot of extra skin in the area? Mine does and should this become a regular thing( which it hasn't so far..thank goodness) she may need a vulvaplasty.Where they remove extra skin that hangs.Hope this helps.We also give yogurt and coconut oil and ACV in their water.

I have been giving her probotics and cranberry tablets. the vet thinks she might need to go through a heat cycle before this is resolved. sigh
