The more protein that is consumed, the higher the levels of BUN and creatinine in the blood, which are the prime indicators of kidney disease in dogs.

I would recommend that your vet check urine analysis for protein loss in urine as well as a specific test known as urine protein / creatinine ratio to see if early kidney disease present, which is the ONLY real risk from chronic lyme disease.

I would continue to follow her urine protein / creatinine ratio, which is MUCH more important than some sort of quantifying lyme diagnosis test, as the urine protein / creatinine ratio can pick up early kidney problems, which can occur on rare occasions in dogs, especially Goldens who have been exposed to lyme disease.

These three measurements: CR level, urine protein - creatinine ratio, and the blood pressure reading are used to «stage» a patient according to the IRIS system (International Renal Interest Society).

Urine protein / creatinine ratios are checked to see a more accurate measurement of how well the kidneys are able to manage their workload

Naturally, the more dilute the specimen is, the less protein will be in it and measuring the urine creatinine content adjusts for that.

After a physical exam, most order a combination of these tests: a complete blood count (CBC), biochemical panel, urinalysis, protein - to - creatinine ratio in the urine and bacterial urine culture.

The cautions on interpretation of the results are the same as the urine protein - to - creatinine ratio / UPCR test.

Like creatinine, urea nitrogen comes from the rearrangement and breakdown of protein in your pet's tissues (particularly the liver) as well as the protein in your pets diet.

The standard preop tests (AP, BUN, Creatinine, GGT, Glucose, total protein and CBC) do not focused on those causes.)

Since normal kidneys allow very little albumin protein in your pet's blood to escape into its urine, there are tests that check for its increased presence without comparing it to the amount of creatinine that is present.
