She was little more than a baby when you got her and, from what I can gather, she's still less than four years old, which is in doggy terms a young adult dog. No animal should have stress, which I'm sure she doesn't now, but perhaps things come back to haunt her. It's so sad.
I don't know if any of you read about the poor dog I came across many years ago and, had I the means at that moment in time, I would have taken him home with me. I can't remember where I told that story now though, and I'm not a dog person, but when I got home I was crying at the plight of this poor little thing.
Sorry if I have missed your story about the dog-probably end up with tears in my eyes when I read it-really gets to me when animals are abandoned or mistreated, they are so defenceless.....

So glad you finally got the news Merz and thrilled that it's nothing sinister.
Hopefully, now, with the correct medication she will feel much better.....let's hope so.Mollie - I can't put into words how I feel about these monsters who mistreat animals, it makes my blood boil too.
I have a little story to tell too, but don't wish to hijack this thread.

Re: Hatti girl is not well...update
Goodnes Merz, poor Hatt-girl, that whatever her previous owners put her through can affect her to this day. I can only thank the lord that she came to you. Some things are meant to be aren't they? Someone up there knew she belonged to you when you rescued her.Her condition is news to me too, I've never heard of it. I am also relieved that there's no need for further horrid investigations and this is treatable with meds. You have a fine vet there Merz
More hugs to Hatti-girl xx

Had a long discussion with the Vet this morning, and have pin-pointed what probably caused her severe Cystitis last year for 6 months-she was bit by a German Shepherd, and when this current bout started around 5 months ago, I went on holiday and my Brother looked after her for 2 weeks-started with it when I came home. So with this and what had happened when she was a puppy, somehow seems to make sense now. Hopefully, when she gets on the right treatment, her stress levels won't go through the roof again

Re: Hatti girl is not well...update
Hi Merz it's good to hear it is nothing more serious. Having lost a 9 month old puppy Millie with kidney failure fairly recently I shudder at the mention of urinary tract problems.
Perhaps a DAP diffuser might help Hatti

So sorry to hear about your puppy Millie, that must have been heartbreaking for you. It's bad enough to lose a pet when they are older, but a puppy is tragic A hug to you....It is good news Meg, thanks. A DAP diffuser/DAP collar, which is worn 24 hours a day, is one of the things, amongst others, that the Vet is looking at. I believe that the diffusers do work well, and presume the collar will be the same. Thanks a lot for the link Meg....

Merz its good to hear that you have pin pointed what may have triggered Hatti's cystitis last year. Have been looking at the DAP diffuser online as have not come across these before. looks great!Meg, am so sorry to hear that you lost your puppy through kidney failure, what an awful shock for you and heartbreaking, you don't expect that to happen to a puppy, very sad.
