Rarely will you find a food that low in protein unless it is prescription (Sci. Diet L/D canned, Natural Balance Vegetarian and Royal Canin LS 14 kibble are best). RC kibble has made several Yorkies very itchy though. It will be impossible to fine 18% in a puppy food. Twenty-one percent is fine til you get a diagnosis and the vet will have to decide if they would rather the food be low protein or puppy food.

Red meat should be avoided in liver compromised dogs.
Poultry and game is also not the best but I would give poultry until you have a diagnosis.
