Hi all,think one pup might have the start of a urine infection as she has squatted a few times and not much has come out , a few dribbles here and there- should I take her up the vets ? (only asking - would you wait for more signs? or would you not risk taking an unvaccinated pup for a urine infection|?)
I wouldn't wait for a pup, I'd get her checked out.

if you take the puppy to the vet now a cours of antibiotics will sort it out

Hi how can you suggest antibiotics without a proper examination of the dog. It could be a number of things that only a qualified vet would be able to diagnose :-)

I took her,he squuezed the bladder and then sampled her pee,took her temp,said all was fine,but that if she was straining to pee the bladder may be inflamed so gave her some anti biotic injections to be safe . . .£55 later all home! best to be safe than sorry - especially over the bank holiday!
