High rotein diets do increase BUN.
Kidney infection (but they tend to feel bad with that).
Old kidneys / kidney failure - but there are lots of options.
Chronic use of meds that are hard on the kidneys.
Anything making the bladder unhappy (stones).
There are a lot of possibilities. Most are vety treatable.
Don't panic.
What food is he getting? Treats? |
Thanks. He is eating wellness core small breed. I am not sure what treats my mom gives him but I think chewy milk bones and when he is here him and Callie will each get a bully stick to chew on. When he was on the Beniful before I got my mom to change it would leave sticky stuff in his privet hair but sense the change it has not.
