I hope they can give you further answers and suggestions. I know that my Vet does not think that ultrasound is as efficient as scintography for diagnosing shunt . . but scintography IS way more invasive. Though she does not have a shunt, she could have MVD with her elevated bat's . . . which we control with diet and supplements.
My Lucy does not have a shunt, but she does have MVD with mildly elevated BAT's. She is a VERY picky eater. We just try to limit her protein as best we can; she is able to tolerate chicken (some dogs aren't) but not beef.
I hope you get definitive answers soon! Please keep us posted. |
Do you know if NV lamb raw medalions would be considered a low protein or would it be way to high? I looked on the bag but didn't seem to see it.
