She doesn't have any GI symptoms at all. I recently changed her kibble from. 25% fat to a grain free kibble which has 28% fat. I'm unable to find a low fat, grain-free kibble. Her lab work last year showed an elevated Lipase but a follow up test showed normal. He always does in-house bloodwork.
I just noticed that her ALKP was less than 10 and the norm is 23 - 212.
I don't see hemolysis on the report.
