Egg whites and non-fermented milk products (ie. cottage cheese, whey protein, etc.) are generally purine free...
If your dog has ammonium urate stones due to the liver problems, maintaining a low purine diet and drinking lots of water is essential.
The water helps dilute the urine and helps keep the stones from forming.
Feeding my liver compromised yorkie high moisture and low purine foods has kept him from getting ammonium urate stones again. He was a very severe case in that he was passing 20+ stones per day and he hasn't had any stones since I changed his diet a couple of years ago.
He eats no purine rich foods except that he sometimes gets low or non fat stonyfield organic plain yogurt.
Offering small frequent meals is extremely important for these dogs.
