*** How high is high? Are we talking a little above the normal
reference range, or are we talking several times higher than normal?
Was the dog fasted for 12 hours or more before both blood tests?

*** High protein diets do not damage kidneys, and low protein diets do
not spare damaged kidneys. These are myths based on faulty and old
research. I'm tired of debunking these myths, and disgusted with vets
who still buy into it and still sell low protein kibbles, which are
the worst possible thing to feed kidney patients anyway. This is not
new news, either--the first article I read debunking the low protein
theory of kidney treatment was in 1999, maybe earlier. There is no
excuse for vets not to be aware of these facts.

I and others have discussed this numerous times on the list, so check
the archives for more details and links to studies.
