Well, now I don't know what to think. I tried to get him to go out and pee one last time before bed last night and he didn't have to. He only went out and peed the one time before breakfast this morning. I went home for lunch and he was outside for like twenty minutes before he finally decided to pee, so it wasn't urgent.
I was going to call and ask Doc to just write me a script for baytril given Auggie's history, but I don't want to put him on anything if he doesn't actually have a UTI and now his symptoms have gone away again. That doesn't technically rule anything out with Auggie though.
I'm thinking of getting us a Saturday morning appointment so I can sleep in late until the vet's office is open, collect his first pee of the day, and then drive it straight over there, or maybe even load him right into the car and wait to have him pee outside the vet's office so we can be sure it's fresh and accurate. Our chiropractor suspects some of the strange stuff we are seeing on his recent urinalysis may be due to me getting up, collecting the first pee, putting it in the fridge (which she said they are told to instruct patients to do but as soon as you put it in the fridge it starts changing the pH), and then driving it over a bit later in the day when the vet's office is open. And then, she pointed out, who knows how long it sits there before they actually run the sample...
buh. So maybe if I make us an appointment I can get it run right away. Though last time I went over there for something and had them run a sample, I was sitting and waiting for the results so Doc and I could talk about them, and it was over an hour of me sitting and waiting... so... sigh.
