Thanks Christy. You have put my mind at ease a little.

I was thinking along UTI lines as well but he doesnt seem to be showing any pain or flinching when weeing or increased need to wee more often but then again he is such a good dog and wouldnt complain if he did. Just not in his temprament (sp?).

I was thinking that yesterday he held on for a really long time to go for a wee. We went to the zoo and we leave our dogs inside when we go out (due to barking & neighbourhood issues) and even though we put paper down in the laundry just in case, he didnt use it and held on (8 hours) until we got home. Maybe holding it that long caused an infection?

I will put in the fidge and also attempt to get another sample in the morning but at least we have that just in case.

Thank you again for your advice
