Hi. Four weeks ago we lost our beloved Springer Spaniel Henry to a prostate infection. He appeared fine with no symptoms until tea time on the 6th April. But then he started to go up the garden and crouch down. He relieved himself at first but then there was no faeces. This continued. We thought he had eaten something and was trying to expel it. I sat with him through the night but by early morning he was no better and seemed weaker. I took him to an emergency vet. They diagnosed it as prostate enlargement and infection. Henry had to be put to sleep after 2 nights and 2000 pounds spent at the vets. This condition basically did for him in those first 12 hours.
We are devastated of course. Has anyone else lost a dog through prostate problems?
 
I've no experience of this but just wanted to say how sorry I am for your loss.
