TLDR
The guidelines for diagnosis and management of urinary tract infections were created by a Working Group of the International Society for Companion Animal Infectious Diseases (ISCIID) in this paper, which is a common reason for use (and misuse, improper use, and overuse) of antimicrobials in dogs and cats.Abstract:
Urinary tract disease is a common reason for use (and likely misuse, improper use, and overuse) of antimicrobials in dogs and cats. There is a lack of comprehensive treatment guidelines such as those that are available for human medicine. Accordingly, guidelines for diagnosis and management of urinary tract infections were created by a Working Group of the International Society for Companion Animal Infectious Diseases. While objective data are currently limited, these guidelines provide information to assist in the diagnosis and management of upper and lower urinary tract infections in dogs and cats.read more

Increase in antimicrobial resistance and emergence of major international high-risk clonal lineages in dogs and cats with urinary tract infection: 16 year retrospective study.
TL;DR: The temporal increase in antimicrobial resistance and in MDR bacteria causing UTI in dogs and cats creates important therapeutic limitations in veterinary medicine and raises public health concerns since companion animals with UTI may contribute to the spread of such bacteria.

TL;DR: On the basis of the available evidence, cranberry juice cannot be recommended for the prevention of urinary tract infections in susceptible populations and other cranberry products such as cranberry capsules may be more acceptable.
