Find away to get her to eat the Rx dog food. The most important thing with Renal Failure is to keep her hydrated so wet food due to high moisture content is probably best plus most dogs prefer the smellyness of wet food to dry food.

I went through CRF with my Zoey for 2 months give or take. She was only given a few weeks but she fought like a champ for over 2 months. Her renal failure was due to poisoning by Waggin Train and Canyon Creek dog treats by Nestle Purina.

LadyJane has been through this too with one of her butt previously.

Hoping a praying you find a treatment plan of your girl that works for her. Make everyday count.
