I have some strips that you can do urinalysis's with. They are left over from when Pooh Bear had a urination problem and I needed to check his urine for blood.
Sadie had a bladder infection a few weeks ago and they gave her an antibiotic. She seems better and is better overall. She still laps a lot of water and even in the middle of the night I hear her in the kitchen lapping water. I decided to check her urine myself. I followed her around the yard with a small bowl and was able to get a sample. I tested it with a strip. The only thing that wasn't the normal color on the color chart was protein. It showed protein in her urine. Maybe she isn't over her bladder infection? Hopefully it isn't anything wrong with her kidneys. Yes, I am a worryful Beagle Mom. We have a vet appt. on Monday and I'll ask the vet.
