Frequently asked questions
Here are some questions we usually get about Pezz. If you would like yours answered, please contact us.
What makes the Pezz Urine Test kit different from the usual urine test strips?
Firstly, it’s by far the simplest and most hygienic way of collecting a urine sample in the history of urine tests. Secondly, the sterile testing cup stops the sample from becoming contaminated, which is one of the most common causes of inaccurate results. Our app’s digital analysis enables us to see the context of the parameters and give you recommendations based on real data. Of course, you can view the results any time in your app.
Why should I regularly test my dog’s urine?
Kidney and urinary tract disorders usually stay undetected for a long time. For example, by the time the first symptoms of CKD start to show, 70% of the kidneys have already been damaged. Our ISO-certified urine test strips enable you to spot signs of kidney and urinary tract disorders as well as diabetes from the urine sample, long before dogs start to feel pain and show symptoms.
What is a rapid, semi-quantitative urinalysis?
A rapid, semi-quantitative urinalysis detects various substances in urine such as haemoglobin, protein and glucose. Compared to a screening test that can only differentiate between negative and positive, semi-quantitative urinalysis can provide a rough estimate of how much of the substance there is. However, only a quantitative test in a laboratory can tell you the exact amount. Due to the cost and time it takes to use quantitative tests for urinalysis, veterinary practices and veterinary clinics very rarely use them for routine check-ups.
How can I train my dog to let me perform the test?
If your dog doesn’t like to be disturbed when going for a pee, and the urine test isn’t urgent, you can prime your dog for the test using our training guide.1. Put your dog on a lead. Approaching your dog too quickly or touching your dog while it's peeing often causes the dog to stop. If you have your dog on a lead, then it establishes a set distance between you two. 2.It's also worth rewarding your dog as often as possible if it trains well. When you next go for a walk, approach your dog slowly as soon as it looks like it wants to pee. Then give it a small reward! 3.Always bring along the handle during the training phase and keep showing it and holding it out to your dog. Gradually bring the telescopic handle closer and closer over time until it touches the dog. Don't forget to reward your dog once this is done! The aim is to get your dog used to the handle and cup.
