Current Approach to UTI's (WWV 2024)

Guidelines for managing subclinical bacteriuria as well as recurrent UTI's in dogs have changed along with our increased concerns for antimicrobial resistance.

• List assessments of urine, other than culture, which may increase suspicion of the presence of bacteria
• Describe the management of relapsed verses reinfection of urine
