Thank you for the very clear and well-explained demonstration. I have a German Shepherd who has been paralyzed from the waist back due to Degenerative Myelopathy as a result of inbreeding. I have had to express his bladder for over a year, and the way I was taught was nowhere near as clear as your video. Even after a year, I learned new things that I believe will make the procedure easier.

Whoever can do this deserves some kind of reward.

I have watched so many videos, read so many tips, had vet staff and others show me and I still could not express my poor pup, but the one handed technique worked! Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for this video! After several tests, X-rays, and an ultra sound to rule out other issues, it’s been determined that my pug’s UTIs are caused by her inability to fully empty her bladder. This makes it easier for me to ensure I’m doing it the right way and not hurting her. My vet did a demo with me, but this is great to have as a reference.

Thank you so much for such a thorough and encouraging video. The lady did a great job explaining everything. Again, thank you ❤

You are a good instructor 👏

Thank you for this video. Is the only one that seemed to help me with learning to express the bladder of my female dog. Her abdominal wall seems tense a lot, and so it can be hard for me to find it. So that first method really helped a lot.

This is a brilliant explanation. Easy to understand and very comprehensive. Thank you.

Thank you so much! This was insanely helpful!

Great video.. I got it on the first try. The feeling for the last rib first was a huge key.

This was very helpful. Thank you!

Yooo thank y'all so much! My poor shepsky hasn't been able to pee for about 7 hours now and I tried this method.. didn't work at first but he finally got up and released some urine, it's relieved him a bit until we get a vet visit. He had been crouching over and over all morning with no release at all . I recommend doing this gently but firmly as the veterinarian states. I had no idea what I was doing but it works

Thank you so much, this totally helped! I tried the first approach, and It only took 2 seconds for my pug to pee, I’m so happy!

Thank you I need this now that my dog is partially paralyzed

Thank you SO VERY MUCH, my elderly pug has a big problem now with her bladder, and this has helped me so much!

No one gonna y’all about how cute that pug sits

The pug is so cute lol

Thank you Courtney!!! ❤

Thank goodness! This video will help my cat. You explained it so well.

Hello Courtney My apologies if i spelled your name not correctly because English is not my first language. Recently, my 18 year old shitzu buddy got paralyzed under his waste part and preparing his long detour. Before i watch your video, He was screaming when he needed to urinate, but i could do nothing. I was desperately finding ways to help him not just putting diapers on him, then I found your video and actually made it! When he starts yelling, i give him bladder expression then he gets settled. Thank you again for your tips and hope AMC channel is more known to people. God bless you.

Thank you, you saved me and my little cat. I couldn't express his bladder and had to take him to vet every day. One thing that really helped me doing it, was one sentence "don't be afraid it's not painful it's just uncomfortable" That really helped me put enough pressure for doing it right.

Thank you Courtney. That was very helpful. Cosmo just started having back issues and unable to move his hind legs.

It worked for us. Thank you so much!!!

My dog is very poorly at the minute and too weak to pee on her own so this is a huge help in my nursing her back to health, she has suspected pancreatitis and is in the early stage of treatment, I'm waiting for the antibiotics to start working but as she hasnt eaten for a few days but is drinking with help I need to make sure a urine infection doesnt muddy the healing process tsui thank you for this tutorial x

Thank You so much for excellent explanation, i am extremely grateful

Thank You so much!

Thanks so much most informative video I’ve found

Such a cutie little pug

Thank you for this very helpful video

Thanks u so much i needed this for my frenchie🙏

These techniques really are helping after my corgi's hemilaminectomy

Thanks so much this really helps

Thank you!

Thank you so much!

This video is really very helpful

Wonderful to have this very helpful information thanks 😊 what a lil cutie 💓😍

Thanks so much my cat was recently diagnosed with diabetes and right not cant stand and is limp. We are giving him insulin twice a day but I need him to pee and needed a way to do it instead of him waiting till it is too painful to hold it. You helped my buddy avoid pain while he is recovering. Thank you so much!

It didn’t work on my dog, she was just looking at me like 🤨 “what are you doing?”

Thank you! My dog just got paralyzed today, and my mom and I are so worried on what to do because all veterinaries, and animal centers near us are closed

Thank you

Wow the first position is very effective to my cat that has bladder issues at the moment.❤️ Our vet taught us of the second technique but it's not effective and my cat gets upset but the first technique you mentioned (standing position) made the expression very easy.❤️ Thank you for sharing this video...❤️❤️❤️

Thankyou so much mam, we had very hazardous rain in our area and water was filled up everywhere my dog was neither peeing in the water nor in our house I was very disturbed seeing him in this condition then I used this and he peed easily and now he is sleeping quietly ❤ thankyou

My God! Thank you so much for this video, it helped me teach my dog to pee in a particular spot. 🙏

Thank you, I did it.

Watching this while in quarantine :(

How long should this preasure last before the urine comes ?

Yo. I have to say… tried it on my male cat, felt the full bladder, realized it was not like what you explained a healthy bladder should feel like, and rushed him to the ER. Long story short: Thank you for saving my kitty’s life!

Thank you. My cat is on medication cuz he was peeing a little at a time. After the med, he kinda lost appetite and engraftment, so he didn’t eat or drink a lot. He only peed in long period and it had almost been a day. I tried this and I don’t think I did it right cuz he didn’t pee on the spot, but after 10 minutes, I heard him going to the litter box. He peed!!! Yeahhh

does this work if your dog has bladdar stones?

How exactly do you know what the bladder feels like?

Is there a video to help with emptying the bowel?

Question!! I have a 32 lb. French bulldog. Both hind legs are paralyzed. I have a hard time holding him up AND trying to express his bladder because he is heavy. Will putting him on his side work?

What if they are on subQ fluids?

I’m frustrated. I’ve tried over ten times. And having no luck. It’s been about 15 hours since my 17 year old pug has urinated. It is -9 with snow on the ground and she just won’t go. Even if I take a pad out there. This weather is expected for the next 5 days. I’m concerned because she is prone to UTIs when this happens. After what point do you have to take the dog to the vet if they haven’t void?

My dog has uti but she can pee on her own frequently and she is on antibiotics, do I still need to do this

My dog just lost her leg function and I’ve been trying to do this all day and it’s not working anyone has more tips please and thank you

I cannot figure this out! What do I do?!

Great help. My dog keeps a UTI from eating Cat food, This would likely help this little chiwawa, he hates water

Can i apply this technique to my male Cat?

My dogs back leg is broken will this work

would expressing the urine in this way harm the urinary tract if they have possible bladder stones?

does this work on cats or just on dogs

Wheres the bladder??? I can't find it

Dos it come alt of the wewe

Is male release same ?

Does it work for dogs with kidney problem? Pls answer :

🙏 is that normally how their urine color is? I noticed my dogs pee looked like that and I was worried. Tow it looks green 😬

My dogs hasn’t peed since his leg broke! It’s Been 24 hours already

I'm testing this

How big is the bladder? I'm afraid I might squeeze the wrong thing...

I have had a video up for two years that demonstrates how to express the bowels in a paralized dog, my 3 year old Saint Bernard had a Fibrocartilagenous Embolism in the spine, an MRI showed a tiny, I mean TINY little blockage and that was all it took to cause his back legs, tail, bladder and bowels to stop functioning. I wasn't able to express his bladder despite the vet showing me how, it just didn't work, so he continuously leaked urine, but the technique I used to prompt a bowel movement did work extremely effectively, it is good for large and giant breed dogs that cant be lifted up etc as you have in your video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n9iXo7dyuruofZc.html

Thank you, not everyone can afford vets

Does this work for male dogs too?

How often do i have to do this on a small dog

Hi Courtney, we have a new family member joined last week, we found out he doesnt really pee when we were walking with him and hold pee too long, he is going to be 3 months next week, do you think it's a good we do the bladder expression for him for the potty training. Btw he is a miniature schnauzer. Plz help

Is this a Boy Dog or Girl Dog????

My dog was in the vet twice i dont have no more money something has to work

“... and now for the one-handed technique you want to use both hands” ?!?

No sound

hi madam , how to poop paralized dog ? please .. thank you in advance .

I tried it but I couldn’t find it and when I thought I had it I ended up squeezing something I shouldn’t have, so my do just squealed and walked away

I'm scared to hurt my dog

I hate my lack of skill

Good to know because you never know when you might need to know. Knock on wood🤫

keep trying to learn hurting/danger to a dog?

Poor dog doesn’t know what’s going on

The video is good but it shouldn't be done by normal people...

BS doesn't work
