The cystolamine is for incontinence and has nothing to do with diet. Some bladder stones can be controlled with special diet. Methagel is a urinary acidifier, which will help prevent stones/infection in some dogs. Check with your vet about adding cranberry juice capsules--they may or may not help.

Answer 2

Yes cranberry juice is fine to give your dog, but she will probably not drink it. All of your dogs issues are being caused by the dog food you are feeding. I feed mine a complete homemade dog food diet, I use a book that I got on amazon.com called Woofing it Down, and it has all the information that you really need.
