How to Prevent Urinary Tract Infections in Dogs

    • 1). Ensure your dog always has fresh, clean water in a bowl or bucket that the pet will not knock over.

    • 2). Feed your dog a canned or moist food to ensure your pet is taking in plenty of fluids. Dry kibble has little moisture in it. If you are feeding dry kibble, serve it in a broth to provide some extra water.

    • 3). Take your dog for frequent walks or provide the pet with frequent opportunities to go outdoors to urinate.

    • 4). Groom your dog regularly. Clip hair on the underside and keep the genital area clean to prevent bacteria traveling into the urethra and the urinary tract.
