| Low Protein We took out 10 month old male yorkie to be neutered this morning and when they ran the bloodwork on him they said that his protein was off and it was low. Does anyone know what this means?? We can't pick him up until 5:00 today so we won't get to talk to the Dr until then. Just worried.

| i would recommend having bile acid testing just to be safe it is two blood draws ask your vet if he recommends this since liver disease runs in this breed and that can also be a protein issue |
