Your veterinarian may require a urine sample for many reasons. Read the full written instructions here: topdogtips.com/how-to-collect-a-urine-sample-fr…

Urine is the end result of the body's filtration system, so there is a lot that can be learned by testing the levels of certain nutrients found in the urine. Learning how to collect a urine sample from a dog should be on every pet parents' to-do list.

"Your vet will require that the sample be as fresh as possible - usually less than 30 minutes old if possible. If the urine is not refrigerated, it needs to be tested within 2 hours of collection, but refrigeration can extend that time up to 5 or 6 hours."
