    I was told they took him outside for the sample (free catch). Yes! we collected from his 3rd and 4th pee.

    Aww thanks @Dr. Jeff . We alway feel how did we get so lucky with ChewChew. Hiding treats under kitty toys look so fun!

    Black paste from anal gland

    Thank you @Dr. Jeff ! I only give ChewChew 1/4 of a 500mg tablet a day (~125 mg/day). By the time we sent in the recheck sample, he only had one full tablet. We wonder if his body did most of the healing work or the first urine sample was contaminated.

    @ChristineL Our preference and goal are also collecting necessary information locally so we can work with Dr. Jeff. @Dr. Christina We don't have a holistic or integrative vet currently. We are looking for a new vet (hopefully holistic or integrative) as well.

    Hi @Dr. Jeff The urine recheck result came back today. It's normal (yay). Please see attached report. I'll also email it to you. Do we stop giving the cranberry supplement?

    Also, we gave ChewChew beef back ribs over the weekend. He LOVED it and was so satisfied. This was his first rib/complicated meal in quite a while. He's cleaned the meat so well off the bones. After his Happy Meal he did his happy dance, extra long version.

    I just love this summary of life's joy, Ginny! @ChristineL For some reason I'm not getting the notifications of new posts on this thread so I just saw your suggestions. But it's like we are on the same wavelength. I ordered a lick mat and dehydrated lamb green tripe from Amazon a couple days...

    Happiness Protocol

    Thank you, Dr. Jeff, Aruna, Christine, and Ginny! I really enjoyed reading what your pets love to do. @ChristineL , wow 7 snuffle mats and 10 snuffle balls ALL AT ONCE! That sounds like a great mental exercise for Hope. We tried snuffle mat a year ago. ChewChew was eager to get the treats (he...

    Hi @ChristineL , somehow I didn't see a notification of your reply, so just see your message now. Yes, would love to know in case we don't find anyone closer who we like.

    Happiness Protocol

    Inspired by the conversation between @GinnyW and @ChristineL in this thread , I thought I'd start a new thread to find out what everyone does with their pets for happiness protocol. I thought we could learn from each other and get new ideas to try and expose our pets to different experiences...

    Black paste from anal gland

    @Dr. Jeff I called the vet's office after our HMDM call. They actually have a take home urine collection kit. We'll pick one up tomorrow, and collect next week. Thank you for the tip! ChewChew doesn't usually pee more than a couple seconds at a time. He likes to pee/mark as he sniffs and walks...

    Black paste from anal gland

    Thank you so much @Dr. Jeff . It's always a pleasure speaking with you. We are looking forward to our (longer) regular appointment with you next week. I think we'll collect ChewChew's urine sample at home next week and drop it off at the current vet's office, as we might not find a new vet by...
