Crystal, you are exactly the person I was hoping to hear from!!! I was looking at a bunch of old threads that you had posted on. Thanks for your input. I feel more knowledgeable already.

Will it make a difference if the food she normally eats is in the 27%-32% protein range? I mix her foods: Wellness Super5 Puppy, TotW Prairie, and Royal Canin - only because she loves it and eats mostly that. I am trying to ween her off it though. I read that high protein foods will affect the BAT, but if I am fasting her correctly then I should be fine, right?

Also, if the fast ended up being more like 11 hours, is that a problem? Meg crunched on a few pieces of kibble she had hidden away in a corner after I took away her food dish.

If you don't mind, I'll post her scores tomorrow. My vet (military vet in Korea) doesn't have a whole lot of experience with small dogs and I trust some of the YTers more than I trust the vet.
