If she was just acting spaced out after eating i would be ok with putting it on mvd but the back legs are tied to neurological sign and can be the onset of something neurological related to the spine that run in this breed.

Do not want to scare you but this i would get on quickly and have a neuro consult

Please hold off on vaccinations (one year booster and rabies that is coming up) until you make sure she is healthy for them
This has me concerned also. I don't like the sound of it, especially with those low numbers. Hoping it is just the liver (and it could be, esp. since it's after high protein), but it is something to look into.

Well, that didn't quote right. Her first sentence anyway...
