I have an 8-year-old German Shepherd named Chance who recently developed a bladder infection. She has been experiencing frequent attempts to urinate with little to no urine coming out, and has even tried to urinate in the house. She had previously been sick with vomiting and diarrhea, and had blood in her stool. I have been giving her Science Diet fast acting stomach relief, yogurt/peanut butter treats, and plain pumpkin with her dog food. What could be causing her bladder issues and what can I do to help her?
