Why is my senior dog peeing bloody, smelly urine with clots?

Question

Hi my dog Kelsey was spayed about 2 years ago and for the past 6 months has had fishy blood pee and sometimes clots but it seemed to stop and I thought that's it and it had cleared up but no for about a week now she as been peeing bright red pee and clots it really smells and she is about 12 years old now the clots are what I would say really big and it's all red pee not just bits

Kelsey needs to be seen by a veterinarian today. This is an emergency now. She may have had a urinary tract infection originally, but now could have a serious chronic kidney infection or bladder infection, cancer of the bladder or polyps or other problems with the lining of the bladder. Please take her to your vet today for an exam, urinalysis and further diagnostics if needed. She will need prescription antibiotics for at least 21 days and depending on the diagnosis may need other treatments as well.
