I'm not sure there is one perfect answer for blood/urine testing but I do it yearly. Two years between is way too long, imo. Dogs age quickly and hide symptoms well. It's only a $17 add on to do blood here with HW testing. If there is a concern we do a bigger panel. I usually do yearly fecals too. We do dentals as needed.

Here cysto to ull pee is usually u/s guided (and free). So we getbfree stone checks whenever pee is taken.
We do blood every 6-8 months. Same for urine. We skip the fecals unless someone has symptoms.
