Just got bad news about my dog.
I just got a call from my wife, looks like my Cattle Dog, Toby might be in the early stages of kidney failure. We took him yesterday for a routine check up. they did some blood work and urinalysis His kidney levels came back very high. She took him back this morning, and our vet suggested taking him to a local vet ER for more testing, and they found the same thing and possibly more now they have to do an ultrasound at 4:00. Also additional blood screenings.
Doctor said if it is just an infection or Lyme's it can be treated with antibiotics and fluids. But hes has been vaccinated , and not showing any other symptoms. If it is a chronic defect he said he might have a year.
Hes only 2 yrs old hes my best bud in the world. I'm devastated.
