Today, Iâd like to discuss struvite stones and crystals. Struvite stones are a type of bladder stone that occurs in both dogs and cats. Theyâre also called triple phosphate and magnesium ammonium phosphate stones. Magnesium, ammonia, and phosphate are common elements in urine.
The first thing to do for a pet with crystals or stones is to create a healthy urine pH that is neither too acidic nor too alkaline. A pH of 7 is neutral. Everything above 7 is alkaline, and everything below 7 is acidic. Dogs and cats, as carnivores, should have a slightly acidic urine pH, optimally between 6 and 6.5.
