Hello, my dog is urinitaing and it seems as if shes bleeding because the wee wee pad come out red. This is the time that she gets in heat but I've never seen this before. Also it's only appearing when she urinates.

I recommend calling your veterinarian in the morning and scheduling an appointment to have her looked at. There could be a few different reasons for blood in the urine. She can have a urinary tract infection, bladder stones, a kidney issue or even a bladder mass. I would recommend bringing a urine sample to have them evaluate it and see if Trinity has a urinary tract infection. I would also consider having x-rays performed to potentially look for bladder stones. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

When the urine smells bad it’s a sign of infection. I recommend an exam and urinalysis. If she has a urinary infection she will need a course of oral antibiotics to clear it up. If she was bred that may have been the cause of the infection, or if she’s been licking herself a lot while she’s been in heat.
