Hello everyone,
It has been a long night so far. Nola is a 7 year old bulldog and out of nowhere she seems to not be able to lay down and get comfortable and has been going pee quite a bit with only a little pee that is coming out of her. My first assumption is possibly a UTI. I know everyone will say, bring her to the vet, if only it were that easy. She has an elongated palate and has the tendency to get really worked up which leads to swelling, breathing heavily, and in the past a heat stroke. The thing that is baffling me is the not being able to lay down or get comfortable part. She was fine last night. She did jump off the couch which she never does and I wondered if maybe she hurt herself or something but if I massage her legs, paws, tummy, neck, back, etc I dont see her act as if she is in pain. Maybe her hip? I gave her some food to see if she would eat, she did. She drank a little water but not a lot, which is common. So is this a UTI and it is bothering her? I have no clue. Curious if anyone has had similar symptoms...
