Cystinuria is a kidney disorder that occurs in Cattle Dogs due to a mutation on the SLC3A1 gene. Dogs with this genetic mutation have an excess of cystine in their urine, causing crystals and stones to form. Stones can lead to difficult or painful urination and can even completely stop urine from flowing through the urethra.
