I have been feeding him Eukanuba Small Breed, Puppy, only b/c the lady I got him from had him on that and I didn't want to chance anymore of a shock, with a new home etc.
Vet this AM, suggested I start with a change in food to an Adult food, with like a chicken & rice base, monitor, and if it it continues, then we proceed with the testing, blood test, 2 hrs later, high protein food given, 2 hrs later blood check again.]
Tim | The problem with going to an adult (lower protein) food is that if he does get better on lower protein, it IS likely a liver issue. So he would definitely need to be tested then. I would test now honestly. If syrup didn't pull him out of an episode, he needs to be tested.
