Normally, that would indicate that a dog was going into kidney failure, that there was too much protein remaining in the blood. But the dogs are fed nearly PURE protein, all meat products, with a little other stuff thrown in. Would it not be expected that it would be a bit higher? Or do I need to get him back in for more serious bloodwork?

His BUN is slightly elevated, however you have to take him back for more bloodwork etc... its not KF , but it might indicate early mild renal insufficiency .
Good luck .
