Tyler Recovering from trouble in triplicate

Tyler is not feeling well
Taking your dog to an annual exam is a good thing. Having his #1 and #2 tested is also a good thing.
The morning of Tyler's pre-scheduled annual exam, he peed in the house, near the back door (while I was shaving and I didn't hear him. However, he did walk in the bathroom to let me know- but I wasn't paying attention). 
  So, I knew there was something wrong and later in the day took him outside and got a sample to confirm my suspicion of a urinary tract infection. I also gathered the other business for a test.
  The tests came back positive. Tyler did have (and still does) a urinary tract infection, so he's on antibiotics. He also has 2 different types of worms/parasites in his #2, which he likely picked up in the area of his outside training because there are so many dogs there. So, he's also on 2 other medications for those.
  Poor Tyler!  You wouldn't know that he's dealing with those three issues, though because he's still energetic, but he should be over them in about 10-14 days.
