My senior dog is peeing blood, straining, and tired. Is she in pain?

Question

My dog is 10 turning 11. She’s peeing a lot, straining & bleeding during peeing and licking her privates. She seems more lazy. The vet did a ultrasound and took a sample of what they thought was a mass. All they said after was it could be cancer, bladder stones that r too big to pass or a pollup but there unsure?! All they gave us was urinary food. How do I know if she’s in pain? We don’t want her suffering and would put her down if she was hurting to much. Thank you.

Poor Sadie! The lethargy is a sign of not feeling well and pain, and losing her appetite will be another sign. I would take her into another vet for a second opinion to see if surgery is an option for you. Best of luck.
