14 Common Health Problems Every Dog Parent Should Know

04. Urinary Tract Infections

Dogs can frequently develop urinary tract infections (UTIs). Signs of a UTI include urinating inappropriately, needing to go more often, increased thirst, blood in the urine, and being lethargic. These symptoms can also indicate other health issues, such as kidney disease or diabetes. If you notice any unusual urination patterns in your dog, take them to the vet for a urine test.
