I had a cat which was dead 2 years ago from chronic renal failure. He was on Iams drive. It is just around the recall of terrible pet food, but the vet said it was probably genetic. He also had stones. I went to the welfare base and Natural Balance (wet), Weruva (wet), and cook meat sometimes. Is this all I can do to prevent cat kidney problems?

When I got out of the shower this morning, I noticed that my dog had knocked over my coffee table and dried up a small bottle of eye drops for contacts. I immediately took to my vet. They did a CBC W / profile and an examination of stool. When I picked up my vet told me he needed to talk to me because they found something on my little boy.

On the blood level testing BUN was 30 and they said normal was 7-25. They told me that his kidney problems and had sold me Azodyl and K / D food for pets. They said that I need to spend $ 70 a month to give him these pills twice a day every day for the rest of his life. He is very picky, pockets pill does not work, peanut butter and bread does not work. It takes me about 20 minutes to put it in his mouth and make him a yellow. He holds in his mouth until I force the water in. I hate doing that.

Can you identify renal disease with a test? Do I get a second opinion? If my reimbursement of veterinary medicine if he was wrong and not do more test? I am currently feeding my well-being of dogs and do not care for Science Diet, because it contains corn meal for my dogs Glueten knowledge can not easily digest so, how would that help dog kidney problems when he cannot even digest it?

The only test they have done with the CBC blood profile and stool examination. I’m really upset about it and he was extremely stressed by the journey by car, he hates, and he was terrified at the VET. He gets stressed very easily. He has an appointment next Wednesday and I intended to give him the medicine so it is in the same condition when I made today under the drops in his belly.

The latest problems discovered on liver and kidney problems. I think my dog had other problems due to foods that got recalled. I did take all my canned food back to my local store and exchanged it for new cans. I have switched from the Nutro to Eukanuba Sensitive Skin and my dog has almost cleared up completely. I had tried several different formulas of the dry Nutro Natural Choice with her only getting a tablespoon of wet mixed in the food very rarely. My dog was still having the skin problems associated with a itchy red spotty and blistery rash on her belly that kept relapsing despite all shampoos, special foods, and medications she was on. The vet ruled out causes being fleas, mange and seasonal allergies. I spent over 0 dollars at the vet on her, and am very thankful she is now healing thanks to my own research on pet foods. I wanted to know if there was a way to get money back\sue somebody over all of this? I heard of the rat poison in it too, which is why I am alarmed. What do you think?
I did research on dog foods before I started with my first dog and got recommended the Nutro NC by the breeder. Not wanting to upset her stomach and change brands suddenly I stuck with it. But unfortunately the problems she had progressed once she was on it for a few months. I nor the vet couldn’t pin point exactly what her problems was. Only by process of elimination with certian ingredients in the dog foods (i.e.intorducing a different protein in the dogs diet) is how I narrowed it down and have gotten her to get better. There is absolutley no reason whatsoever to put down dog foods. Its really a personal opinion as to what brands are great and which ones stink. I have no oppositions to certian brands. But I say “Feed what works for your dog” Obviously its better to feed a high quality pet store brand of food verses wal-mart or other supermarket store food. Try to see whats really in your dogs food. Fill a glass full of water, drop in kibbles of puppy chow and let it disolve. You may see animal hairs.
Thank you very much to whom recommended me to save some of the dog food. Fortunately I did save some of the lamb and rice she was on when she first started having the skin problems. I did in case I thought maybe the vet could test it or something but several months ago the recall wasn’t noted.
I am over 0 dollars down from numerous trips to the vet over all her skin problems. I changed dog food brands and she is getting better. She now has ugly brown spots as scars all over her belly as a result and hopefully I can get a lawsuit going over it all. And this dog was expensive costing over 00 dollars. As you can see I am pretty ticked about it all. I am very sorry to those whom pets and wallets suffered through it all. Bless you all!
