Urinary Tract Infections...

Due to the hmmmm...not so great...vet services available here, I need some advice from you guys in the know...

My dog (high performance, 22 mo. old, male Dutchie) has had three urinary tract infections in a row. The first one was treated with Amoxicilina (in Spanish), the second with Cefalexina, and the third with a product called Baytril. The infections cede, the ganglions in the neck area at the base of the jaw (which become inflamed, for some reason) reduce in size, the dog stops looking at his "netherlands", and everything is fine. After a few days, though, the symptoms begin again. I have some bloodwork from fifteen days ago, and I'll get new bloodwork today from a different lab. I'll post both sets later. Ditto with urine analysis results. My dog does not drink much water...I don't know why.

He eats raw, 10 chicken necks at night, two of them with the fat left on; and in the morning, two cups of a 60% by weight somewhat leanish chicken burger, 40% fruit, yogurt and veggie mix, with some chicken liver, and supplemented with two salmon oil caps per day, 400 mg Vit E every other day, and 1000 mg Vit C every other day.

Any advice will be e-appreciated!!!
