History
- The owner has noted blood in the dog's urine intermittently over the past month. Blood was first noted when the dog urinated one morning on newly fallen snow and turned the snow red instead of yellow. The dog seems otherwise healthy and has had no previous health problems according to the owners. "Major" eats a variety of commercial dry dog foods -- whatever brand the owner has a coupon for during any particular week. His appetite has been good. The owners do not report any vomiting, diarrhea, or coughing. There is no polydipsia, but they are not sure about polyuria. "Major" is current on his vaccinations.
