I took them in Monday and they both tested normal at this point. My vet advised that renal or kidney problems can take time to develop but that finding it early can make acute kidney failure treatable but chronic kidney failure is harder to help. She advised that anyone who was feeding these foods watch their pet for any sign of illness and get a blood test to see if damage has occurred and if it has not then at least the blood test can serve for a future comparison in case the pet becomes sick in the next year from the damage from the tainted foods they had already consumed. Hope this helps any one else who had been feeding these. |
I just returned from the vet's and he said they looked healthy and there was no need for blood work. I'm not to happy - I would've prefered bloodwork
My 2 yorkies were eating royal canin and nutro ultra (wet)
