The Urinary System

A healthy urinary system ensures that your pet can process and eliminate waste and excess water from the bloodstream. When kidneys begin to fail, such as with chronic renal disease, toxins build up and can affect all the major organs of the body. Even simpler conditions, like bladder stones, can have a big effect. Symptoms like straining, blood in the urine, or excessively frequent urination can all be signs that something may be wrong.
