I am taking notes, to ask the doctor when I get there, regarding tests etc.
So, what is considered low fat food that is good for Yorkies? I feed Evangers, canned food. Says "crude fat" seems to vary from %3.00-%5.00 - Evangers doesn't add anything extra to the food, so I think this is good. BUT I also leave them ZiwiPeak dehydrated meat and this bag says crude fat = %28 !! This seems high, yes??
The ZP looks way too high in fat.
The Evangers would need to be converted to dry matter.
I can do it for you if you can give me the moisture %.
The fat % that is recommended depends on the vet.
Usually 10% or under to start or so.

Do you have copies of the blood work that you can post?
