Why does my dog's pee smell strong, even with no other symptoms?

Question

Hello, my dogs urine is smelly no blood in the urine she has no difficulty going to the bathroom, once in a while she will have what looks like a little mucus blob in the urine stream. She also drinks plenty of water each day. Her habits seem normal she is very playful and energetic and she eats all of her food. Is there any suggestions to fix this smelly urine ? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | spayed | 5 months and 26 days old | 27 lbs

Dr. Strydom, DVM · Accepted Answer

There are many things that can cause the urine to smell off: 1. Urinary tract infection (UTI) 2. Diet 3. Vaginitis 4. Abnormal pH of the water she is drinking 5. Diabetes (uncommon in puppy this age but not impossible) 6. Anal gland smell that you are mistaking for an abnormal urine smell I suggest you have her to your vet for an exam and urine test to rule out an infection and vaginitis first.
