Why is my puppy still peeing a lot with a UTI on antibiotics?

Question

My 9 week old Labrador puppy has been on antibiotics for 4 days for a UTI and he is still urinating 4 or 5 times in the space of 15 minutes? Could there be something else going on? Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Male | 7 months and 18 days old

Andrea M. Brodie, DVM · Accepted Answer

It can take up to six weeks of taking antibiotics to combat a UTI. You will need to be patient. 4 days of treatment is a very short time and you will likely not see any results for another few days. Make sure he drinks a lot, and go for walkies and the more often he urinates, the better, as he is getting rid of bacteria in his bladder.
