Pyuria was significantly associated with positive cultures (P\u00a0&amp;lt;\u00a00.001), cloudiness was not (P\u00a0=\u00a00.076). Survival data in 35 dogs (8 dead) showed no association between bacteriuria and survival (P\u00a0=\u00a00.69).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions and Clinical Importance<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Bacteriuria is common in paralyzed dogs but does not cause fever; diagnostic criteria of UTI are unclear.
