Canine Health Watch: Good News Everyone

I've recently written about some of Spike's health issues
http://lynnecoll.blogspot.com/2012/05/ive-got-my-crossroads-feeling.html While we weren't stressed out about them, they were still a cause for concern. Spike is 11 1/2 years old and we want to make sure he stays healthy.

The latest tests were Wednesday. I collected an undiluted (i.e. his water was restricted from around 11 pm to 6 am) first-thing-in-the-morning urine sample, and we took him to the vet's for a blood test.

Dr. S. called with the results Thursday. The thyroid medication is working, Spike has no blood in his urine and is no longer losing protein in his urine.

Hooray for Spike.
