My puppy has red pee, worms in stool, and pees a lot. Is it a UTI?

Question

My puppy is almost a year and she’s been peeing constantly. She peed yesterday with a red tint and her stool this morning was red with worms. Could this be a UTI. Pet's info: Dog | Dachshund (Miniature Smooth Haired) | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 7 months old | 10 lbs

Your dog has two problems: red tinted urine can be a sign of a UTI and you will need to take her to your veterinarian for an exam and a urinalysis. If this is a UTI, she will need to be on antibiotics and pain medicine. She could also be suffering from a uterine infection or bladder stones or just be in heat. Your vet can determine that with an exam! The second problem is intestinal parasites. You can get a wormer over the counter for her or have her wormed when you take her to the vet for the urinary problem.
