Why is my 8-month Yorkie puppy straining to pee with no urine?

Question

I have a Yorkie puppy (8 months).. She is constantly trying to urinate and nothing comes out. We thought it was an infection but antibiotics didn’t help. This has been going. On for a month. Can you help? Pet's info: Dog | Yorkshire Terrier | Female | spayed | 8 months and 16 days old | 2.5 lbs

Hi there. It sounds like Athena is straining to urinate. This can be caused by infection which sounds like you have dealt with, however I would make sure you check her urine again and make sure the infection has not come back. I would also have your veterinarian do a vaginal exam and also do ultrasound and make sure she doesn’t have an anatomical defect causing her to have problems urinating. I hope that helps guide you with that Athena and thank you so much for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
