They are more concerned with demi as she has protein in urine and she is 4 and has periodontal disease but does not sound like the case with yours. Not sure about the other values but I would not be concerned with the bun if the creatinine was normal is what they told me
Her Creatinine was 0.8.....so that would make her BUN/Creatinine ratio 36.25. Normal for Creatinine says 0.5-1.8, though, so she's well within normal on that. And this says her "TP" (does that stand for total protein??) is 5.9 (normal is 5.2-8.2). Also, her ALKP is normal (178, with a normal range of 23-212) and so is her glucose (104 with a normal range of 74-143).

And now I'm noticing that at the top of the paper it says "Adult Canine"....she is definitely NOT an adult!!! Could this mean those normal values are off??
