Yes Lindsey, I think that is what is wrong, she was resistant to the antibiotics. The culture is actually a culture and sensitivity. They will culture the urine to identify the type of bacteria and then test the bacteria to see which antibiotic it is sensitive to (which antibiotic will kill it). When she gets the right antibiotic, she will be OK.

Thank you Gayle! You've made me feel better about it. I have faith that we can get it under control.

Sweet little Layla does not need any problems! I just know that she will be fine. Your vet sounds wonderful, and you and Scott wil be sure she is okay.

You know Lindsey I have two alphas in my house so you will see them taking turns on who's on top of the other. But they always stick up for each other.
Let us know how the cultures come out. |

We found out on Friday that the results were back and she has 4 kinds of bacteria, including e. coli, but is only resistant to penicillin. We got 10 days of amoxycillin which we will start tonight. Hopefully this clears it up, and we can stay on top of it from now on.
