I have posted in The Doghouse but will post here for a bit more traffic:
So Ddog likely has some sort of UTI/bladder issue - she's had a bit of discharge in that area and off colour urine. She went to the vet yesterday and he's done the blood and urine tests but they won't be back Wednesday.
In the meantime what can I safely treat without 'treating' as we don't know what it is. Can I bathe that area with baby shampoo and warm water? She's a bit stinky which I will happily suck up till we know what the problem is, but I'm wondering if it it's comfortable for her/could make any possible infection worse?
