With babesia, the dog isn't actually pissing blood, it's excess billirubin, which gives off that reddish-orange tint.

For pissing blood, I would be leaning more toward UTI or kidney problem, than prostate, for which TMZ is first-line and Baytril would be recommended as second-line.

Of course, if it's an injury or cancer, then none of this matters. But, for infection, most dogmen have cephalexin or TMZ onhand to be given immediately until they can get to a vet.

And, if it's a UTI, even with a vet the TMZ should be choice numero uno.
