This is why you always test PH on first urine of the a.m. prior to food or water. Just like when taking a sample to the vet. Testing PH like this is surely an indicator of possible UTI if PH is elevated. I have been doing it for years and backed it up with same sample tested at the vet. I have also tested urine first thing in a.m. and again later in the day to get different results. Thus, the reason to test first thing in a.m.
As to the dog loosing weight. That is only going to help if "puppy fat" is the cause of the RV and a bit of weight loss lessens the recess where urine pools. Sometimes it is and as the pup grows the RV corrects. But, most times it takes the heat cycle to correct.
And yogart is ok but not near enough to counteract antibiotic IMO. The reason I like using a true, live organism probiotic other than just yogart. They are much more potent than yogart.
