My dog was diagnosed with bladder stones after I had him x-rayed. Then, yesterday my vet inserted a urinary catheter and explained to me that the stones are gone. But since this morning he keeps bleeding. Can you please explain to me what's going on and what are the best treatments or medications that can possibly help my dog? Thank you so much!! I'm so sorry if the rontgen isn't very clear to see.

Inserting a catheter is irritating to the urethra, and that can be the cause of the continued bleeding. Without seeing Mimud in person, I can't say what are the best treatments for him. Have him seen by his vet again.
