Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Jude! I am very worried about Jude! I would take him in today for a recheck. I would ask for full blood work, urinalysis, and belly X-rays. Maybe collect a urine sample to bring with you. I would consider also checking his clotting times. He could have a UTI, bladder stones, crystals in his urine, immune mediate destruction of his red blood cells or platelets. I would also be sure they extrude his penis from the prepuce to evaluate the penis itself. I hope this helps and I wish Jude the very best!
