I would do a bat to test liver function, wellness bloodwork to check organ function and have your vet check his knees for LP which is very common and often shows up later on. There may be other tests that would be beneficial I would talk to your vet and explain your situations. None of the tests I have told you about are expensive or difficult on the dog
Agree, Uni's vet mentioned her knees when she was about 6 months old, but wasn't formally diagnosed with LP until she was 3 years old.
