My dog is 2 yo neutered male on raw diet.
Please can you give me your opinion on the ALP and BUN results.
Was told that ALP is not clinically significant and that high BUN could be due to raw diet which is higher in protein. Is that something to be concerned about as have been told raw fed dogs tend to have a high reading for BUN.

Fast sample.

Not exciting in anyway ALT really only gets us excited when high and more than three times top value.
Slightly above normal BUN with normal phosphate and normal creatinine in clinically normally dog not exciting either.

Completely agree with Lonecat - all looks fine to me.
