The vet called to check on Couver after his annual and I asked what exactly his levels were. They said normal is between 7-27 and his was 31. So it sounds like it's not super high, but we will be testing again in a couple months.
I have introduced wet food for breakfast and dinner and am mixing his kibble, wet and water together to make more of a soup. He loves it, so hopefully this will help with dehydration, if that is what is causing it. It's been reallllly hot here lately and he is not very good at staying calm outside (he loves to play fetch as much as possible), so I have been keeping him inside more as well.
