We kinda had an interesting night last night. Jakes mom watches Jersey during the day at her house while she is home for the summer (she is a teacher) they live down the street from us, it has been so nice and we couldnt do it without her. When we went to go pick her up after work she told us how she was acting really weird. She is really close to being all the way potty trained and in the 3 weeks we have had her has never once peed in her kennel or crate. She had done both, and about every 10 seconds she was squatting to try and pee but her bladder was completely empty. We werent really sure what to do so we called CJ's dad (the one we got the puppies from) He told us that one of the other dogs died about 2 weeks ago from kidney stones and went through the same thing only he was in pain. So we freaked out.. Jersey wasnt in pain she was still eating just was constantly trying to go pee. So we took her to the Vet last night.

He was not able to get a urnine sample because her bladder was litterally completely empty. But after running a couple test and examining her area.... he was able to make an assumption that Jersey has a bladder infection. So $185 later Jersey is feeling much better but it could be up to 7 days before she is back to normal. Wow I didnt realize how much dogs cost. We thought we were getting a killer deal because she was free but now im starting to think that we will get to the cost real fast after all the late night vet fees.

Wow that sucks! I'm glad to hear she's doing ok though!
Ah I'm sorry you had to go through that! There's nothing worse than worrying about your pup being sick! Hope she's feeling lots better sweetie!
I'm so glad everything is ok!!
You were warned :-)
She is a cute dog though.
