Sam, a wire haired dachshund, came to the clinic unable to urinate and struggling to pass motions. Clinical examination showed that Sam’s prostate was enlarged and this was confirmed by radiographs. Further tests showed him to also have a urinary tract infection. After a few days of antibiotics, hormones and regular urinary catheterisation Sam began to be able to pass urine and faeces by himself and made a great recovery. He will need regular monitoring to protect him against a relapse.
