 hi all , looking for some help please 
 
 I have a patient who is a 14 year old pug with recent history of hind limb paresis and knuckling of both hind limbs. He is obese at 13 kg and should be about 8kg. He a.so has a long standing third degree</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 10</generator><item><title>RE: Neurogenic urinary problem</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/194483?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sat, 17 Mar 2018 11:59:10 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:c9000c01-7115-4809-8324-b76f1f2fbc3b</guid><dc:creator>Kate Richardson</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Another consideration- he could have chronic bladder atony secondary to over distension secondary to pupd? I had a canine case a couple of years ago with cushings who had this- placed an indwelling urinary catheter for few days to keep the bladder as empty as possible, plus bethanechol and treating the cushings to resolve the pupd and the incontinence fully resolved&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Neurogenic urinary problem</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/194452?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 16 Mar 2018 23:01:16 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:2bab05cf-0e4c-4d80-b99f-78aef17f5220</guid><dc:creator>Anthony Dennison</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote user=&amp;quot;robloxley&amp;quot;]Possible, worth a look, but if present would suspect is just secondary to the incontinence.

&lt;p&gt;I would go with spinal imaging also. Given the age and the weight of the pug, it&amp;#39;s probably a chronic disc protrusion so if it&amp;#39;s been going on for a while surgery may not be helpful if there is significant damage to the spinal cord.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What about placing a cysto tube?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Neurogenic urinary problem</title><link>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/194394?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Fri, 16 Mar 2018 08:36:52 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:bc9fcd3b-e496-4f74-89a7-57f2f41e048c</guid><dc:creator>Rob Loxley</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote user=&amp;quot;janine redman&amp;quot;]Possible a uti?[/quote]&lt;/p&gt;
