Any guesses on what’s going on in this bladder?

13 year old/spayed Pekingese, bad athritis and weak in hind limbs, sits to urinate, can’t hold self up.

In December urine culture came back as Beta Hemolytic Strep (no cancer cells seen in urine)- dog had trouble urinating, also couldn’t control bladder, urine was bloody, puss discharge. Ultrasound in Dec was suspicous of cystitis.

Put on Simplicef and Rimadyl, cleared up. Has had 2 more bladder infections since. Bloods normal
considering doing the CADET BRAF test

Large amount of hyperechoic

Large amount of hyperechoic sediment – most likley from retention cystitis. Is she able to empty her bladder fully – if not most likely dealing with neurological disease.

I agree with Remo,

I agree with Remo, Lumbosacral CT ideal here. You will see this in intact males with chronic prostatic disease as well.
