Well we took my dog in yesterday because she was going downhill. She isn't eating today but is drinking.

I got the reports from the renal panel and her levels went way up.

BUN is now at 104 (not the highest for her)
CREA is now at 8.8
Phos is now at 20 (scares me)
Red Blood Cells are normal

We up'ed her almunium hydroxide from .30ml 2 times a day to 1 ml 3 times a day. We are going to the vet tomorrow to learn how to give Subcutaneous Fluids to her. Sounds like it will be once a day but not for sure.

Anyone have any luck with Subcutaneous Fluids??
