Hi All,

Vet called this morning and I received a belated Mother's Day Gift!

All values were perfect!

The excess water drinking is behavioral.

Vet said to measure out water amount given over a 24 hr. period, and he will advise if I should restrict intake and how much. He said this extra drinking should not cause kidney damage in the future, but he would like to check blood and urine about once a year.

No protein found in second urine test.

Thanks for your concern and support. I learned a lot.

Having Yorkies is as close as you'll get to angels on earth!
