As the owner of a small Yorkshire Terrier indoor dog, we were thoroughly upset when, quite by accident, we discovered that he had symptoms of urolithiasis.
The symptomatology was a slight twitching of the hind legs, i.e. simply – in the trembling of the dog during sleep. Having drawn the attention of our veterinarian
to this, we received an urgent recommendation to pass a urine test, which showed an alkaline reaction and a large amount of triple phosphates. The escaping salts
injured the ureter and caused an inflammatory process, as evidenced by a positive
reaction to the blood, and increased leukocyte counts.
