This test is usually administered during the first year of a dog's life. Some people do it and some people don't; I'm just overprotective and want to make sure that everything is alright. If the test is normal, they will be able to evaluate it there. If not, they will have to mail the samples off to find out what to do from there. |
Most dogs are fasted (can be done without) Then blood is drawn, and they feed a meal. Then wait two hours and draw blood again.
I am praying this is your mistake and not the vet's!
