skwo2 Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I want to ask you what can cause the brownish color in urine? I took Chelsea out to the grass to wee during the day, and the wee before bed is on the training pad. I saw brownish urine tonight, it was normal last night (light yellow color). Could it be because I feed her some cranberry juice? I heard that cranberry juice is good for bladder in dogs, the cranberry juice I got is pure cranberry juice with no sugar. I mix it 1 part of cranberry juice, 1 part of water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puggy_puggy Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Is she on heat? She could have a urinary tract infection and the brownish colour you are seeing is because she is peeing blood. Sounds like something is not quite right to me and I would be getting sample that your vet can test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucknow Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Change in urine colour can commonly be caused by diet (beets are commonly blamed but Cranberry is not implicated as far as I know), blood being present or liver problems. I am not sure if the cranberry is a new supplement but I would stop it for the time being, if the urine colour follows feeding it you have your answer! Presuming the colour is still brown take her to a vet asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
