I have a 4 year old female. Recently she has had a chalky discharge at the end of her urinating. We had her "fixed" after her first heat cycle. Pretty sure it isn't a heat cycle thing as this has never happened before. We have a traveling vet that comes around but not for two more weeks. Anyone else had a problem similar to ours? Thanks for any help given.
I am not a pig person but I know that a diet high in calcium/phosphate can cause a chalky color in urine.
Is there any other signs present? Acting normal?
No other signs. She is happy/healthy. We do give her yogurt with her dry food. I'll leave it out of her diet for a few days and see if it clears up. Thank you for the response. Very much appreciated.
My first thought was a yeast infection and was going to suggest some apple cider vinegar on her food.
I found this:
A diet high in calcium or phosphorous may result in the formation of salts in the urine leading to a white, chalky fluid which is seen at the vulva. This should not be confused with infection, although infections of the urinary tract may cause vaginal discharges.
