    Okay I can’t upload a pic.
    So here goes.

    TP 72 (50-72)
    Alb 39 (26-40)
    Glob 33 (19-46)
    Urea 11 H (1.7-7.4)
    Bil 4.3 (0-16)
    Chol 9 H (2.8-8.3)
    BA 10 (<15)
    ALT 88 H (13-78)
    ALP 125 H (12-83)
    GGT 0 (0.1-9)
    GLDH 47 H (2-6)
    AST 37 (14-53)

    Haematology all normal.
    Owner also brought urine SG 1.034, pro ++, pH 6, rest norm/neg.

    Given the ALT and ALP are so mildly raised and no signs of decreased liver function I guess just crack on a think of some anxiety meds to give this dog!

    Thanks, Sarah

    Thanks Scott

    I like that you also looked up GLDH on e-clinpath 😉

    I’m not at work today but the dog had bloods and ultrasounds and FNAs in March; believe it had moderate elevations in ALT and ALP at that time; was going to have further investigations but then lockdown happened. Was not put on any meds/supplements.

    Presented to me on Saturday because the owner wants something for her anxiety (this has been an ongoing problem for the dog for a few years). Otherwise clinically well apart from looking like an old warty Yorkie.
    So I thought I better check bloods before thinking what medication I might be able to use for it.

    I am not tech savvy but let me see if I can upload results.
