Most people will tell you it is not necessary in an adult asymptomatic dog but I'd just do it If there is a problem later with poisoning or whatever and her BA go up, you will know they weren't always like that... It is also good to change diet and use supplements just so you are doing everything you possibly can...
Ellie was pretty much asymptomatic and I decided to do it anyway.
Her vet said she would do it but didn't think it was necessary because Ellie's regular blood work was normal. All Ellie had was a reaction to a vaccine (and some Yorkies do), vomiting every week or two (this ended up being from Science Diet), a UTI that we had trouble getting rid of and something else that I can't remember right now. Anyway, none of those things are a red flag to most vets...
