If your dog has been drinking excess water for a while and peeing often, these are the symptoms of kidney failure in dogs to look out for.
Symptoms of Dog Kidney Disease-
• Vomiting or diarrhea
• Lethargy
• Dehydration with much greater than before thirst
• Lots of peeing or attempts to pee
• Pale gums and weakness
• Weight loss and decrease in appetite
What's the Cause And Symptoms of Kidney Disease In Dogs?
There are many factors that can lead to kidney problems in dogs but several are common and need to be focused on to better treat the condition.
Here's the possible causes for canine kidney disease:
• Poor quality kibble diet causing dehydration and high toxin load
• Over vaccination
• Stress
• Infection
• High blood pressure
• Kidney stones
The condition is preventable and this is far easier than having to treat it, so the best first course of action is to look at your dogs diet and vaccination procedure.
Dog Kidney Failure Diet
If you feed your dog a kibble only diet, and they are showing symptoms, you'll want to improve it straight away, and the Healthier Kibble Diet I developed is great for this as it's far more kidney friendly and I'll leave a link to a video all about the healthier kibble diet in the description below.
If your dog is suffering kidney disease, I highly recommend you feed them a raw food diet. Vets may tell you your dog needs less protein in the diet because it stresses the liver but they do not take into account that your dog is a carnivore, handles raw food very well and is in dire need of fresh food to support healing.
Your dog needs fresh foods to rehydrate. Kibble contains around 17% moisture while fresh foods contain around 80% moisture and kidney disease is not only brought into being partly from chronic dehydration, it also continues to dehydrate your dog and that's very bad.
The other main issue with kibble is the high level of additives such as preservatives, colors and flavor enhancers. These all have to be continually excreted via your dogs kidneys, causing stress, stones, bladder infection and urinary tract infections.
Your dog must have fresh food in the diet, so check out the Healthier Kibble Diet video link in the description above.
Unfortunately, vets will offer restricted specialist diets that do nothing more than complicate the situation with further suffering.
Over vaccination can be a big factor for kidney disease in dogs, as many pet parents get annual vaccinations when it's completely unnecessary. Keep vaccinations to a minimum and certainly no more than once every three years as per AVMA guidelines.
If you can get your dogs diet changed or at minimum boosted via the healthier kibble diet and incorporate some natural home remedy options, you'll go a long way to comforting your dog and helping them to greater longevity and wellbeing.

It's the 3rd option at the bottom of the page.
My dog was diagnosed with beginning stages of kidney failure-I immediately changed her diet to Raw Primal food-pork, goats milk, udi oil. Kidney failure is gone and cured!!! Hope this helps others...!
Thank you Marley for contributing this information, every bit helps others. Well done for getting on it so soon after the diagnosis - Vital!
@Marciano P. S&C, they don't sell raw dog food only freeze dried raw food. Look up Primalraw.com and there's also Steves real food, also great raw dog food pre-made meals.
Can you tell me where you find good recipes for this diet? I’m also wondering if your dog had ever eaten a raw diet previously? I know raw diets have become very popular but It’s just hard to imagine dogs aren’t prone to infections from raw food. I’m glad to do anything that would benefit my little girl so I’d like to learn more about what all I should buy.
My dog was just diagnosed with stage 2 kidney failure. I’ve heard raw is great for this but my dog is super picky. And ideas on how I can get him to eat raw?
Stella and Chewy’s actually make raw frozen patties. I get their frozen venison for my 16 y/o Lhasa
Thank you so much for sharing this video. My dog mean the world to me 🙁. I'm gonna take each and every step you taught in this video
Your welcome, if you do follow each step, it will make a great and lasting difference to your dogs health going forward... soooo much better!
Thanks for this. My do seems sick these day to was going through youtube and i found your video so helpful. all the symptoms and causes are so properly explained and diets as well. i am surely following it
Your welcome. Just follow the outline and diet and your dog will be MUCH better off over the next few months. Good luck.
Just what I was needing! Thank you for sharing this informative video about Symptoms of Kidney Disease in Dogs. It has served me well, Doctor.
I am totally grateful to you. CHEERS!
Your most welcome, glad to be of service.
My dog had early kidney failure-I immediately changed her diet to Primal Raw food pork and duck, goats milk, udi oil-kidney failure is gone. Cured.
I wish I had found you earlier Dan. My 13 year old border collie was advised to change his dog food to a senior type food. Immediately he started getting diarrhea, constantly. He lost a huge amount of weight. Dad took him to his vet, who only gave him antibiotics. He said it was a gall bladder infection. We are now 6 months later. The diarrhea stopped but our dog is now only 13kgs and it used to be 22. I took him to a different veterinarian. She recommended other food as the previous bag had lots of bad preservatives. We also added probiotics, and she injected vitamin B12. She immediately noticed a strong bad breath, which she said was a sign of uric acid. We will get the results of blood analysis on Monday. She said he will not get his weight back. I am utterly heartbroken to see my dog as weak as he is now. He barely has the force left to stand on his back feet. I carried him into the car, and we used to play fetch until recently. I cried a lot over the last 2 days. It feels as if I have said goodbye
So then my question is: are you up for a fight?
With some fresh foods, supplements and guidance, he could be back up to strength and weight and ready for more.

@@DanScott1 I will fight as if my own life depends on it and I am willing to spend any kind of time, money and effort to get him back to his best form. He is meant to be a witness at my wedding. I just noticed the links in your answer and I will check them now. Thank you so much. The result of the blood test will be known on Monday. I'm not sure what the difference in approach would be if the test shows a liver problem or a kidney problem, or both. The previous vet said gall bladder 6 months ago but now he is drinking huge amounts of water, which is more indicative of a kidney issue. I hope it is not general organ failure similar to what old people get. The new vet said that the outcome of the blood test allows us to adapt his diet more specifically. He'd have to supplement what affected organs can not process or digest. The new vet told me that he will not get back to his normal weight. I do hope he gets the strength in his hind legs back. She mentioned treatment with steroids as an option, but it was not her preference. Today I have given him his new food (no bad additives), some fresh chicken and fresh tuna. His probiotics too. It has lactobacils. If you can recommend a specific probiotic depending on the blood results, I would be grateful. I don't know if it is a good idea to give him chicken and tuna while we don't know which organs are affected. He had some diarrhea today, but not as badly as it was 6 months ago. That had a yellow colour and this was more dark and consistent. It had an invasive smell though, and he produced lots of poop today. I'm willing to prepare any fresh meal for him daily, at any cost. Feel free to tell me which foods give him power. The new vet also noticed that he had 1 badly rotten tooth at the end of his jaw line, affecting his gum which was inflamed. I know how much this can hurt in humans but my dog can't tell us. She said she could pull the tooth out but she would have to sedate him for it and he is too weak for that now. If he somehow gets his weight/strength back in a month, which I hope and pray for, maybe she can pull his tooth out later.
@@GrandmaBetty1945 I dont know the history so no clear picture. My one to one deals with all that. Let me know the blood results they help. There's plenty that can be done naturally and without the vet drugs/diet.
Best probiotics are soil based as they are stronger: amzn.to/3yoURqU
Careful on new foods and supplements as youll get diarrhea as the gut is not used to new foods/supplements so go slow and small on anything new.
@@DanScott1 Thank you Dan. I will contact you soon for 1 to 1. I will let you know which kind of kibble was recommended by the new vet. She mentioned the bad additives in the first kibble bag. I hope that this new version is not the same lie in a different package. I believe I paid a 100 euros for it. The new vet was one of my patients for osteopathy. I can't imagine that she lied to me for commercial reasons. That she gets a percentage on sales of the kibble she gave me. As an osteopath I am aware of the lies about food by our own food industry. Therefore I prepare whole foods for my own family every day. I'm disappointed in myself for not being aware of the problem with my dog sooner. I often work 12 hour shifts and therefore he lives with my parents, who are retired. They thought that the weight loss was just part of getting older. They didn't think anything of him drinking much more water and they thought that the smell was just the result of him jumping in the pond. I had faith in the first vet when he recommended the kibble. Turns out he was very wrong. For now I am giving him freshly cooked chicken. Some banana and apple. I looked into things that can detox his liver. It said basil and carrots. On one hand I understand that I have to go slow. On the other hand he's only 13kgs and I feel like the clock is ticking
@@GrandmaBetty1945 Yes, I can guide on good diet and supplements for the health of specific organs and so on.
If you join me in the One to One, great, we can work together and you'll learn so much. If not, I'll do my best to suggest options here on YT to help your dog to better health and weight.
Don't worry about the clock, it's all now, enjoy being alive.
Awesome explanation...Thanks for sharing!!!
Glad it was helpful!
My dog died at age 12 of kidney failure recently. She was poisoned by her kidney failure. Early in life, she got all of the recommended shots. Later in life, she only got the rabies shot. She was also fed organic, grain less kibble her whole life. I regret feeding her kibble now. She also underwent anesthesia twice for teeth cleaning and removal. Looking back, the anesthesia and drugs were hard on her body. I will never put a small dog through that again.
This is a huge issue for dogs as you have stated. Thank you for sharing this information. Knowledge of canine nutrition needs and not relying on vets is the key takaway. Thank you.
My 14 is in last days of kidney failure. I too had 2 yrs of dental care and he was a lively, active healthy guy. I'm heartbroken and lost, he is truly my best friend. This came out of nowhere fast. God bless you.

Dr Scott, i am really praying you can help me. I have a nearly 11 y.o. Irish Setter. About 18 months ago we found BUN and Creatinine elevated when doing lab tests for possible thyroid issues. Thyroid was low side of normal so we decided to use very low dose of l thyroxine. BUN was 64 with creatinine 2.1 and no signs of excess drinking or urination. Was on a balanced home cooked diet already for about 6 months at that point. Values remained stable and NA, K, CA and phosphorus were all still within normal ranges until late January this year when the BUN went to 94, creatinine went to 3.9 and other readings elevated but still within normal range except glucose was just above normal. Still was doing very well with no physical signs. Just had labs done Wednesday 5/3/23 as he has been doing very poorly with weak, shaky hind legs, low appetite, itchy skin (he has seasonal allergies) and low urge to drink due to his diminished mobility, vomiting and nausea, some diarrhea. Lab results were awful with BUN 134, creatinine 6.3, CA 12.1, PHOS 14.8, NA >170, glucose 136 (was not fasted for tests). Blood work also shows neutrophilia and hypochromia and AMY 1264. He was given a shot of famotidine along with subcutaneous fluids and i was given 10mg famotidine tablets to give 2 tablets every 12 hrs. When he is tolerating food again i am to start alum hydrox powder 1 tsp on food 2x a day. As of friday evening (48 hrs after labs) he is still quite nauseous and very reluctant to take any food or meds, although i did manage to coax him to eat a bit earlier. Drinking less than normal but better than before. Legs are still very weak and shaky and seems to have flank pain when touched based on his sides quiver for the initial touch no matter how light it is. He is 87 lbs, neutered at age 5 and will be 11 in one month. I will do anything at all to get him back to feeling better. Would give him one of my kidneys if i could. Can you please help us?
Needs a full lifestyle review, diet modifications, supplements and to wean off all drugs etc. This is a fair bit of work, so recommend my One to One Dog Health Email Consultation and Support Service: healthydogforlife.com/one-to-one-total-dog-health-service/
highly appriciate if you can give few renal diet plans or foods
Feed lots of vegetables, lightly cooked, well crushed/blended and added to the meal. Feed sardines, eggs, meats like chicken, turkey and lamb plus raw green tripe.
Feed herbs like dandelion and basil, garlic.
Feed kefir, goats milk or fermented vegetables and sprouts.
Small seeds like flax and sesame (crushed).
No vaccines, vet drugs as the kidneys have to deal with the toxins.
@@DanScott1 Thank you Scott. Love from Sri Lanka🇱🇰
Thank you so much for helping pet owners with your informative videos.
I disregarded my vets advice as I'm a medical researcher and decided to do a deep dive into nutrition and also how to detox my little one. I was told she had weeks left on this earth but a year later and she is still with us. EDTA to clear her creatinine levels, NAC used to help her too along with some good multivitamins, herbs and raw food.
Thank you also for talking about vaccinations, I get a titre done on my 4 and keep a check on protection that way.
There is no need for yearly vaccinations and I don't think owners are made aware of the risk benefit ratio.
God bless you Sir.
Your most welcome Rios Girl98, nutrition is the key to health and titers keeps your dog safe. Check out the work of Veterinary immunologist Ronald Schultz.
Personally I've never vaccinated. Raw diet defends my dogs immune system.
A big wholehearted well done to you for aligning with your personal vision for your dogs health, lovely to read stories like this, makes me feel my work is worth it.
All the best.
@@DanScott1 Thank you so much for that recommendation, take care & God bless 🐕🤗❤
@@Riosgirl98 Your most welcome.
My dog is very sick too. Please, help me. How you gave her the EDTA? How much?
@@pl4497 Hi there, my little one was a chihuahua so I gave her 150mg which was basically a 1/4 of a capsule.
From my research it says that dogs can be given up 150mg per kilo in certain circumstances.
It really helped my little one feel better and get a good quality of life back.
I gave it to her at night at least 6 hours after she had her meal.
I hope this helps, my little one survived a year over what vets said she would because I put in the research and true d everything possible to help her.
If you need any more info please comment back.
Stay strong and positive for your little love, God is good.
So nice
Hey thanks.
@DanScott1 my dog was just recently diagnosed with renal failure and is currently in the hospital. I didn't notice any signs before taking her into the vet. I took her in due to weakness in her back legs. And the blood results came back with the upsetting news. What foods and supplements do you reccomend? I'm hoping to get her pulled out of this. And wanting to fight. Right now she is having trouble regulating her temperature. It went from 98, back up to 99, than 99.7 and now back down to 97. Please if you can give me any advice.
I'd want to transition to an all fresh food diet, use dandelion, parsley and urva-ursiall support the kidneys.
Kidney Support Gold: amzn.to/3KB679O
Use Rehmannia 8 amzn.to/4c4owIO good herbal kidney support.
Use greens for many positive reasons, 1 tsp in one meal daily ned dog: amzn.to/49w0bKR (probiotics good for kidneys, live enzymes, herbs, dandelion root, renal flow support and more).
My ebook has the diets covered if wanting that: healthydogforlife.com/feed-your-dog-better-book-by-dan-scott/
And no drugs/vaccines etc
Go slow on the transition but start now.
My Basset has Diabetes Incipidus. Vet visit said he has a protein spike in his urine. Gravity is fine. I have been feeding him a raw/cooked diet for the last 6 1/2 years. Goat milk too.
I've been titer testing him and no rabies or shots for the last 6 years too!
Here's two videos I want you to look at: ruclips.net/video/W3YIrz1sBcg/видео.html
and: ruclips.net/video/djqL3IM9YN4/видео.html
They can help with direction going forward. Let me know if you need further assistance.
Hi Dan, are sub q fluids necessary? Also, my dogs appetite has diminished, we just ordered slippery elm. Will that help to get the appetite back? Normally we feed her a raw diet.
SE will reduce inflammation and have her feeling better so yes, it may help appetite.
Sub Q will help with mild dehydration and certain health issues.
Also give small drinks of plain coconut water through the day.
Add raw organic eggs and canned sardines into the diet also.
Thank you for the informative video. My pet border colie age 5 has health issues suddenly. Today her doctor took blood test as she has been drinking water n pee immediately. She is a fussy eater n like only grilled chicken. Never likes kibble. Pls advise as we are worried n waiting for her reports.
Diets is unbalanced, here's some diet help:
If you feed kibble, the best thing to do first is remove 50% of the kibble from the bowl and replace with raw eggs (best) soft boiled (ok) and preferably organic, canned sardines (in plain water with skin & bone intact: 12 Pack Sardines - amzn.to/3vaXrj6), some part cooked and blended veggies like broccoli, kale, green beans, spinach, brussel sprouts, bok choy etc and some meat proteins such as chicken meat, even better but not essential.
If not liking to prepare vegetables then these freeze dried greens are antioxidant packed to help protect cells from free radical damage, cellular repair, support immunity, joints, skin issues, heart and eye health: Core Immune CARE Greens: shrsl.com/3uv18
Now your dogs getting live enzymes, probiotics, Omega 3 oils, the highest quality proteins and nutritional assimilation from eggs (100%), and antioxidants, minerals and vitamins from vegetables and freeze dried greens.
Always add a quality probiotic to improve digestion and gut health: (skin issues/UTI's/yeast/itchy dogs) use this one: amzn.to/3yoURqU and for all other dogs use this one: shrsl.com/3uv7l
If you want an excellent, VERY low carbohydrate kibble at just 5%, (high carbohydrates cause chronic inflammation, with itchy skin, yeast, poor gut health, ear infection, UTI's and hot spots, and nearly all kibbles are 40+% carbs!).
Ketona has high protein at 47% (dogs thrive on proteins), correct fats at 15% and natural additives, so have a look at Ketona Kibble: healthydogforlife.com/KetonaKibble. I recommend still adding the fresh foods even with the best kibble.
By introducing fresh foods, really lowering carbs use, introducing greens, omega 3's, proteins and a better more suitable kibble, your dog will respond with healing and improved health over the next 12 weeks.
Some must do's:
Zero vaxx once adult (auto immune disease issues rife from over vaccination)
If Rabies is mandatory, use Protect after shots: (Humic & Fulvic acid) amzn.to/33P2P1i
Very low carbs in diet, 10% or less (cause of inflammation, poor gut health and later, cancer) No vet drugs, there's effective natural alternatives (always!)
Feed a healthier diet with at least 50% fresh food in it.
NO white foods ie white rice, potato, pasta..
So along with that grilled chicken, I would add some raw eggs, some canned sardines, some part cooked and blended veggies, the greens, the probiotics and a tonic: Dandelion tincture - amzn.to/33KWWT6 this helps with the blood sugar issues. Note my information on white foods/carbs! From now on, keep carbs low, they spike insulin.
I have a mini pin which is 7 months and he has a stage 4 kidney problem. I literally dont know what to do, it's like yesterday he's very munch okay and today he's not okay and he's vomiting, not eating and then I brought him to the vet and did some blood testing and boom, stage 4 already? I'm literally dying while crying out loud. It's very painful. 😭😭😭😭
Sorry to hear this, I know it must be a shock for you. Here's how I can help you and your dog.
What I'd do if she was my dog is transition her over to a raw food diet straight away and stop all vaccinations as a precaution. This way she has a chance at recovery. The vet diets are useless and make matters worse. She needs the best diet now, natural supplements and no drugs if possible. I'm all about the natural way because it works.
My Ebook covers all you need to get going on this: healthydogforlife.com/feed-your-dog-better-book-by-dan-scott/
Or I have a One to One program where I assist you on a plan of action and support you via email, more about this here (3rd option): healthydogforlife.com/real-food-for-dogs-book-and-video-program-by-dan-scott/
Hope that helps.
I took my 15 year old to vet after throwing up, panting, tiredness, trembling and diarrhea, she was on I.vs and vet said her kidney is high and red blood low, we changed her diet to the prescribed food and got some meds. Could this be linked to UTI, she had before? Dental tarter issue? She also has a complicated eye infection which we wasn't recommended surgery at this age
There's going to be a few things flagging in the body: Filter system - kidneys, liver, pamcreas. UTI is infection from low immunity and some yeast causing infection. Dental tartar issues means infection via the blood stream which can link to the UTI. This is general decline from diet, vaccines, drugs, stress.
I do not recommend vet prescribed food.. you generally get more of the same health issues, only worse!
I do recommend to feed lots of vegetables, lightly cooked, well crushed/blended and added to the meal (important). Feed sardines, eggs, meats like chicken, turkey and lamb plus raw green tripe.
Feed herbs like dandelion and basil, garlic.
Feed kefir, goats milk or fermented vegetables and sprouts.
Small seeds like flax and sesame (crushed).
No vaccines, vet drugs (meds) as the kidneys have to deal with the toxins.
Add probiotics to all meals (start small and build up).amzn.to/3xqa2i0
Great all round help with freeze dried greens plus probiotics: amzn.to/3cOgzLu
A quality Omega 3 oil really helps: amzn.to/3vDdtjX
To cleanse and detox the liver (important): amzn.to/2SyDgg4
Spray the eye with silver daily: amzn.to/3iJ6hjB
This will make all the difference going forward.
All the best.
Go Raw dog food, always! Primal raw is a great brand-pork, duck, along with goats milk, udi oil. Totally cured my dog of kidney failure. Sadly, vets are giving the wrong advice . Raw food is the only way.
@@marleytaylor332what is UDI oil?
I wish I had found this sooner, there were no excess urination signs , my dog was just diagnosed with Kidney disease yeterday. Hes not doing too well today, Im trying to find out ways to improve his quality of life
Sorry to hear this but there is hope. Please follow the instructions in the video and then ask if you need further help.
Raw food-primal brand is great! Pork, duck. Goats milk, udi oil. Totally cured my dogs kidney failure.
@@marleytaylor332 I've been tempted to give my dog all this that you recommended. Do I just give him strictly this? Or do I add any other foods? Can you give me an example I could follow as whst you give exactly and how often? I'm sorry, I just want to make sure I will do everything right so forgive me if it seems common sense, just dont want to worsen my dogs condition ya know? Also it's udi oil or udo ?
My dog was diagnosed with kidney disease the only thing not normal was the SDMA which was in the med / high range and she reached out of the normal range for urea and MPV , but everything else is normal. Is this still early stage kidney disease? Thanks for your great video! Also, do you know if astragalas root and dong quai herbs can help too?
It sounds early. Time for a fresh food based diet of either quality kibble with fresh food additions or all fresh food based diet. It's DIET that's needed to fix this long term. If you do kibble, Ketona is the best I know of at just 5% carbs and natural additives: Ketona Kibble: healthydogforlife.com/KetonaKibble
You can mix in eggs, canned sardines in water and some part cooked and blended veggies. Freeze dried greens are good here for the kidneys: Green Immune + Super food - (GLM, phytoplankton, Microalgae and Spinach) healthydogforlife.com/GreenImmuneSuperfood
And add some nice meat proteins.
Or a home cooked or raw food diet:healthydogforlife.com/feed-your-dog-better-book-by-dan-scott/
Astragalus is used to protect and support the immune system, preventing colds and upper respiratory infections, lowering blood pressure, treating diabetes, and protecting the liver. Astragalus has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Don't need the Don quai herbs. This is what you need: Kidney Support Gold: amzn.to/3KB679O
@@DanScott1 Is Hills Science Diet Okay short term? I am going on a trip for a month so I was thinking of doing their beef stew variety for KD and then adding some bell peppers, cucumbers, green beans cooked. What about fish oil or a fish capsule? Can you recommend one or are the other things you mentioned better for inflammation? Also, when you say fix this long term do you mean it may be possible to reverse it Now with these remedies cause it was caught in the early stages? Yes, I purchased Kidney support gold? Is it safe in your opinion? Also, if I used this product I can still do all the other things your mentioning right? It won't be too much just really good I bet? ! Thanks Dan I really appreciate your support and great info!
@@AP-ty1vl I wouldn't give science diet period. There's a good kibble called Ketona: healthydogforlife.com/KetonaKibble that I would recommend. It's just 5% carbs, 47% protein and natural additives. You can add the extras to that.
Yes kidney support gold is great to use and works but it's the underlying diet that is key to everything else working and diet has to have a large element of fresh food in it.
Hemp Seed oil: amzn.to/3vDdtjX is good as a stable oil instead of fish oil.
For KD, it's fresh foods and proteins ie eggs, canned sardines, part cooked and blended veggies. I'd only use max 50% as kibble (ketona only though) and the rest as fresh/raw foods.
Very low carbs, zero vaxx and vet drugs and SciDiet.
Dr Scott what do you know about Fanconi Symdrom? My dog has acquired Fanconi Symdrom. The best guess the vets have is he got it from chicken jerky treats from China. My dog is on Dr Gontos protocol. He takes 3 sodium bicarbonate in the morning and 3 at night. Is there any thing I can do for him is there away to reverse this?
Acquired renal Fanconi syndrome is caused by several drugs such as gentamicin, tetracycline and azathioprine, exposure to toxins such as heavy metals, infections such as leptospirosis and certain diseases such as primary hypoparathyroidism and copper associated hepatopathy .
There is what your doing presently with bicarbonate, plus theres potassium supplements and management of kidney disease through nutrition.
My focus would be nutrition led for the kidneys by using a fresh food diet only and kidney supplements like Kidney Support Gold: shrsl.com/3uuxs
This something you can't reverse but can manage.
I’m a step too late to your video. As my 13 year old fur kid was diagnosed with stage 4 kidney issue yesterday - hopefully she can pull over it.
She’s still on drips and the vet said it would need 2 to 3 days to monitor her condition.
It’s so devastating to see her like this though she’s still active when last visited her this afternoon.
If she manages to pull over this and get back in health , what diet and supplements should I provide to her?
Yes, it's a difficult stage and I don't know the dogs health records.
I'd feed a clean healthy diet of raw foods or mostly. Foods that don't cause issue with the kidneys and along with supplements actually help repair the kidneys.
So that's zero food additives, drugs, vaccines, vet meds, flea&tick meds, de-wormer meds and so on. All have to go through the kidneys!
And then feed fresh foods which for dogs is mostly meats, offal, veg, eggs, fish and a few balancing supplements.
It's all a bit brief to go through here. There's my ebook: healthydogforlife.com/feed-your-dog-better-book-by-dan-scott/
It contains 3 complete diets, healthier kibble diet, home cooked and the raw food diet. Everything you'd need to follow is in the ebook.
I do have a coaching one to one support option too if that's of interest where we consult and I create a plan to follow with ongoing support via email.
Denise Ng: My nearly 14 yr old is taking one Azodyl capsule every morning on an empty stomach, and Epakitin (powder) mixed in a small amount of food morning & evening. There is no prescription necessary but must Veterinarian did put her on these. Ask your Veterinarian about it. They have helped her survive and do well for 6 months now. I take her for blood tests every 3 or 4 months depending on how she seem, lethargic or lack of appetite. Good luck with your dog!
@@BoysLikeMeee Thanks for heads up. Add some veggies and small dark fruits to the diet to help the kidneys with high antioxidants.
The raw food diet will cure your dog. Primal raw dog food, pork or duck, goats milk and udi oil. My dog is cured.
My dog has a weak kidney and is not eating, What food can you recommend? Since our vet recommend us to only fed our dog vegetables she become so weak and avoided foods. Does a raw liver and eggs(raw) recommended for dogs with weak liver? Hope you can answer to my question. Thank you so much
Here's some information to help you. Feeding veggies is a good idea but not without proteins or the dog starves. Raw liver is great at 10% of meal total. Raw eggs are great complete nutrition too, feed as a protein.
Protecting The Kidneys:
It’s crucial to protect and support healthy kidneys to avoid kidney disease in dogs.
1.Feed a fresh, whole food diet. A balanced raw diet will give your dog the protein, vitamins and nutrients he needs to function well. Adding the following to your dog’s regular diet will also help support his system and protect kidney function:
Eggs - easily digested complete food
Small fish like mackerel, anchovies and sardines (canned is good and convenient)
Sprouts
Small seeds - flax or sesame are great (crushed)
Herbs - dandelion and parsley (can gets as tincture if not fresh): Dandelion Root Extract: amzn.to/33KWWT6
2.Add some fresh chopped herbs to your dog’s food - a pinch per 10 lbs up to 1 Tbsp for a dog 100 lbs or larger. If you buy dried herbs, capsules or a tincture, assume the dose on the label is for a 150 lb human and adjust the dose for your dog’s weight.
3.Avoid or minimize vaccines - since they’re a major cause of inflammation and the toxic adjuvants and additives can compromise your dog’s system. Since the kidneys flush toxins from the body, vaccines force the kidneys to work overtime anytime there’s a new toxin unreduced. Your dog’s kidneys don’t like those toxins and will work hard to flush them out.
4.Avoid drugs and toxins - Antibiotics are really hard on the kidneys and drugs that suppress symptoms are not actually doing anythin to heal the real issue. Use silver for antibiotic use: amzn.to/2UXexmC
5.Give a good quality probiotics to improve digestion overall and help the kidneys process better: amzn.to/3xqa2i0
Your dog’s kidneys are amazing organs that often don’t get the credit they deserve.
If your dog has kidney issues, using fresh food as therapy and avoiding the drugs/vaccines the kidneys will suffer through is the way to go for your dogs health long term.
I didn't know about kidney diswase.After watching this video I got a full brief concept about it which helps me to care my cat...
Yes this will help cats too, good luck.
We have a 12 year old chihuahua who has cushings and is diabetic. She was also diagnosed with kidney failure May 2, 2022. Her BUN, may 2, was at 48. So we began giving 150 ml every other day as instructed. We brought her in for another visit to another vet on June 18, 2022 and her BUN was at 82. We were so stunned and very concerned over the new numbers and were told to give her fluids twice a day. Her prognosis seemed bleak. Well, unfortunately we tried everything and she simply would NOT tolerate the twice daily fluids. She fought and barked and tried to bite so we had to settle for once a day and pray it was enough to help keep her going. Today, July 28, 2020 we took her to a third vet and to our dismay, he admonished us for giving her fluids and asked us why we were doing that to her. We told him we were instructed by an ER vet to give her fluids twice daily and had to settle for giving her fluids once daily instead. He told us “STOP!! STOP POKING HER! You’re telling me she doesn’t like it so why would you want to do that to her???!” Needless to say I felt shocked and offended that he would question us over following a veterinarian’s instructions when all that time we had been feeling so guilty that we were failing her by giving her only one daily treatment instead of two. He said 150 mL a day for a 14 lbs dog is way too much and added that we should have never been giving her that much, as though somehow it was an indictment on us for mistreating her. He took her to the back to check her kidney numbers and were we ever shocked when he came back 20 minutes later and said, “YES, STOP the fluids. Her BUN is at 29.” She’s not in renal failure. She’s at stage 2b or 3. With three different veterinarians telling us three different things within six weeks time what are we to think? While I am thrilled to death that her BUN was at 29 I can’t help but think that if we were “giving her too much fluids” as he said, her number would’ve been 7, 8 or even lower than that. Isn’t the fact that her BUN is now 29 proof that the fluids were actually working? I only want to do what’s best for my dog. We are concerned that if we stop the fluids that her numbers will go soaring back up into the 80s again. Can you please give me your insight on this. I’m not asking for any advice. I’d just like to know if you have any idea why he doesn’t attribute the good results to the daily fluids. We would love nothing more than to discontinue the fluids. The needles have been absolutely unbearable for all of us. I just want to understand why he was so adamant that she is fine and should not be on fluids. We’re hoping he’s right but given that her BUN nearly doubled previously I want to be sure his assertions make sense.
I don't have the history so I'm guessing but thank you for the details, appreciated.
Hydration is important, that's for damn sure as kibble does lead many dogs to dehydration and kidney issues.
What I would say is the following: feed a fresh food diet only, no dry food. That way you get the moisture needded into the dog without needles. Think raw food diet of raw egg, canned sardines (in plian water), part cooked and blended veggies and some meat like chicken/turkey/lamb/bison etc and a few supplements. And mineral water only, not tap!!
This will improve numbers. And NO vaccs, vet drugs, dewormers etc plus ZERO carbs/sugars.
Blood numbers change each test and just a snapshot in time. The focus here is nutrition.
@@DanScott1 i can’t thank you enough for responding. We didn’t give coco fluids today or yesterday and already her tummy has bloated up again and her skin is wrinkly and dry looking. We feed her chicken breast, quinoa, very little sweet potatoes, green beans, turnip greens, pumpkin and egg whites mixed with a multi vitamin. She is on 14 units of insulin a day (7 units am and 7 units pm), vetoryl for her Cushings and an ocular vitamin for cataracts. I have not vacc’d her in three years now. I don’t feel it’s necessary. I do give her filtered water but I can switch to mineral water. We’re considering giving her fluids two or three times a week but know our vet won’t refill her fluids for us now. He said she was simply dehydrated in May so the fluids probably helped some. She got the fluids every other day for 6 weeks and yet her BUN nearly doubled. I’m still wondering what brought down that BUN. We may never know but I feel it was likely the fluids. I just want her to feel good. Something tells me stopping the fluids will have consequences.
@@DanScott1 i just wanted to add that you are right about the moisture in the food. I’ve started adding filtered water to her food and I felt it was helping. She’s been off kibble for 3-1/2 years now. We’re considering trying “Steve’s Real Food”. It’s a raw diet.
@@benicio1967 She needs fluids or she'll get dehydrated too far which is dangerous as cells cannot cope with dehydration for long. Blend the veggies for better digestion. Forget vaccs, thet will finish her off.
Use all the egg and raw.
Filtered water is fine.
Raw egg, sardines, meat proteins and veg all have lots of moisture she needs.
@@benicio1967 Steves is good but you can easily make your own raw diet as it's tiny in amount and needs a good transition period too but easily doable for balance.

Took mine to the Vet the other day. After full bloodwork done, I was told everything looked good for an almost 13 year old except the Kidney levels were a little elevated. The Vet claimed it could be a dental issue, yet he stated the teeth had mild to moderate tartar. Within a couple of days I received the most outrageous estimate for a dental. Im very confused. My pooch is a little chubby, eats everything he gets fed, walks every morning, drinks normal amounts of water, no urination issues. Any ideas? They will not give me copy of the bloodwork.
Thank you for the detailed information, helps. Here's how I would fix the situation.
For the elevated kidney levels begin now on adding some fresh food to the meals or it will get worse on the kidneys. My free gruide will help with this: healthydogforlife.com/guide
Adding in some fresh food will help your dog with better weight control too.
For the teeth, do this instead of the expensive vet. Watch this video and follow the teeth cleaning advice, it's simple with two great home remedies (coconut and neem bark powder) you use together to fix the teeth situation: ruclips.net/video/pxQ4iPe2uss/видео.html
Links to the remedies for the teeth in the desription below that video.
If you paid the bill, demand the blood work copy.
All the best.
Raw dog food! Primal brand is great-pork, duck... along with goat milk, udi oil.
Hi.. I’m so thankful can find this video. My dog blood check was not good enough with 1,5 creatinine and normal BUN. Is it ok if i feed my dog raw meat mixed with oatmeal and veggies? Please your advise, thank u so much 🙏🙏🙏
Yes that's ok but add some organ meats like liver at 10% of meal total. If giving raw meat, giev a little bone, get some chicken necks or feet or turkey necks. You want 12% bone content in the meal when there's any red meat in it the meal, for balance.
If you don't know numbers, think 10 fingers on your hand, 9 are meat and 1 is bone, that's the meal ratio each time theres raw meat in the meal.
Noted. My dog’s creatinine was 1.2 and she got 1,5 of creatinine after i gave her anti flea&tick chew… and i feel so bad now. Hope this can help her… Thank u so much doc, really appreciate it 🙏🙏🙏 God bless u
@@glasgow3751 Yes the anti flea stresses the Yes the anti flea stresses the kidneys. Use a natural option going forward.
Yes, and it happened with my lovely one ☹️ now my dog sometimes she look energic n happy, but one thing i concern is her ears n mouth feel a bit warm.. vet said maybe she stiflingly hot but still I’m worry about this.. is this effect from her kidney condition? Sorry if i ask you too much 🙏🙏🙏
@@glasgow3751 I have no history on the dog but maybe, yes. Follow my advice above.. and only use natural foods and no vet drugs ok. And keep well hydrated if she's hot in the head right now. Use only filtered or mineral water, NOT tap. Also give small drinks of plain coconut water daily. Helps rehydrate and some electrolytes.
My dog has no strength to get up or walk do you think its time to put him down or is there still hope? He drinks a little and eats a little but cant hold himself up just lays all day hes not crying in pain but hes definately not the same happy boy but looks at peace most of the time
There's lots of history here I dont know about to help you make that decision. I dont know age, diet and present health. Please share a few more facts?
My dog creatine level is 15 and age is more than 10years, he is under drip and vaccination, however vet told chances of survival is very less...
Sorry to hear this. If he lives, follow the guidelines in the video.
my beagle is 13 and has kidney problems pee too much and very thristy eats well always wants to eat .
He's near diabetic so switch diet to fresh foods mostly ie eggs, meats, vbeg, sardines, organs and keep the kibble low at a third of diet, 2/3rds fresh food.
Give greens to help kidneys: amzn.to/49w0bKR 1 heaped tsp daily in food.
@@DanScott1 ok ty
My 7 year old Pomeranian wont’t eat anything but chicken. I understand that chicken is high in protein and phosphorus. Would it be better to force feed him human food (pumpkin purée, rice, veg and fish) or let him eat the chicken?
I'd use the chicken to build on with other options like fish (canned sardines are great), veg, not rice unless brown and just a small amount, eggs, pumpkin puree is ok, just a little. You could also use turkey, lamb and beef.
Also add probiotics for good digestion: amzn.to/3xqa2i0
And include a good oil like Hemp Seed oil
This is for omega 3 oil balance with the other foods and grest skin/coat health among other great health benefits.
Can I follow this advise for a dog suffering from Polycystic Kidney Disease?
Yes, very much so. Keep your dogs lifestyle clean, no drugs, no vaccines, no synthetics, fresh food diet as much as possible. This helps also: Kidney Support Gold: shrsl.com/3uuxs
@@DanScott1 thank you.
@@beingallme8932 Your welcome.
My 15 year old shih tzu, was diagnosed an early stage of kidney failure. The vet said it is inevitable given his age. I am contemplating whether I should buy a kibble for renal or should continue to his usual diet only modifying it.
What about transitioning over to something like freeze dried raw foods, bit like kibble only far healthier. Here's an example: Bixby Rawbble Freeze Dried Raw chicken - amzn.to/3YH6GVD
Bixby Rawble - Freeze Dried Lamb - amzn.to/3kDbUmX
You could slowly transition over using old to new food over two-3 weeks until it's just new food to give the gut time to adjust.
Forget renal kibble, it's not good enough nutrition and makes things worse.
Carbs want to be very low, proteins high quality, so the freeze dried option is good. And on top of this meal add some antioxidants, vitamins&minerals, enzymes plus good herbs for the kidney health: Green Vibrance - amzn.to/3R1m3HR
Take a little out from the meal, say 10% and replace with a canned sardine like these: amzn.to/3vaXrj6
Now your dogs kidneys have support.
Oh and zero vaccines, vet drugs, pet food synthetics of any kind ie the synthetic additives in most kibbles.
@@DanScott1 thank you for your reply. Will do this for my dog. Hopefully, he get to live atleast 2 more years. I love him so much.
@@9thcup361 This will really help you do that.
Hey Dan, so my dog (12 year old dachshund) has kidney issues and the vet noticed so abnormal cells that they say it can be cancer but theyll need to run another test. Hes still his normal self just drinks more water and urinates more so I'm guessing we caught this early. Will this diet help in some way with it? Or any other things you can recommend if it is cancer?
Hi, if it's cancer I recommend my One to One Dog Health Email Consultation and Support Service: healthydogforlife.com/one-to-one-total-dog-health-service/
I can help with both but needs care and attention so I advise the One to One plan.
@@DanScott1 thank you so much! I'll definitely be reaching back out once I know the results. I really do appreciate you and all that you are doing for us pet owners. You are such a blessing! God bless you sir!
@@bummwear4635 Your welcome, there is a lot we can do.
Where can I find a good healing diet for liver and kidney disease for a 16 yr old dog?
My ebook Feed Your Dog Better is a great place to start: healthydogforlife.com/feed-your-dog-better-book-by-dan-scott/
3 complete diets inside: Healthier Kibble Diet, Home Cooked Food Diet and the Raw Food Diet.
At 16 and with those needs, it's either freeze dried raw food diet, raw food diet, cooked food diet.
im giving my dog raw primal chicken patty with homeade organic chicken broth, spring water, marshmallow root, dandlion, nettles, cranberry juice, d mannose. It's working mostly and i've been able to avoid taking her to vet but she had a seizure again this morning and can't understand why. Her urine is clear with no pink. I'm doing everything right as far as I can tell. The seizures started a year ago when she was suffering from a bladder infection and I gave her an antibiotiic prsecriibed by vet that is unbeknownst to me notorious for causing seizures. Since then she has had about 5 seizures and i've been able to keep it under control with subcutaneous drip on onset and the diet mentioned above. There is something in that fluid bag that helps but I'm not sure what it is and how I can provide it to her naturally. Any adviice is appreciated. Thank you.
You can also add raw eggs, organic, and canned sardines (in water) for extra omega 3's, important. I'd also add a good CDB oil to cut back on seizures: healthydogforlife.com/CBD
Then, it's lots of antioxidants, so add 1/4 scoop med dog: amzn.to/3R1m3HR
The above will make a difference and obviously NO vaccines or vet drugs and any synthetics.
Hi Dan,
My dog has foam in his urine. We've been in touch tackeling his liver disease and he's flourishing. But the past 3 days he's had water diarhea every hr, than it went to every 3-5hrs giving him food and suppliments off your advice, even did the 24hr fast plus the diarhea med off amazon i caught in your other video plus the firm up pumpkin. Just got the firm up and diarhea pectin today so hoping it clears it up but my question is could it be a sign of his kidneys going bad given the foam issue? The diarhea is all he has, he's flourishing everywhere else thanks to you. You literally saved his life. He went from knocking on deaths door cuz of his liver to almost a puppy again within a week. Now it's this pesky diarhea again. I can't thank you enough for giving my dog his health back. For that reason i wanted to ask you first cuz I've told you how bad his vet is and the "good" ones i hear about aren't excepting new patients yet to get his urine and kidneys checked
It's called proteinuria. Proteins are slipping into the urinary system because of the kidney issues. The diet needs to be fresh food only no dry food. No carbs either and no drugs, vaxx.
Start with bone broth, get the diarreha under control and slowly move over to fresh foods like chicken, raw eggs, canned sardines in water and part cooked and blended veggies. Use this green powder: amzn.to/3cOgzLu start small and build up to 1/2 scoop small dog, 1/3rd scoop med dog and 1/2 scoop bigger dog.
He may have an infection causing this pee too, so run a 7 day protocol with oregano oil as the antibiotic once daily: amzn.to/3ulnF1T It's neat so mix 1 drop oregano oil to 1tsp carrier oil ie olive oil, mix and add to food or wrapped in treat which is pushed to back of throat so has to swallow.
Give lots of water to drink, make it mineral/bottled etc not tap and give some plain coconut water to drink also, but get moisture into your dog.
@@DanScott1 I figured as much but not sure how to remedy it or why the protein is going through his kidneys. What can i do if my dog won't eat any veg on his own? I've tried everything. I hate having to force them down him every day just so he gets them and stressing him with the process. And is it fine to give them to him raw all the time? I just take them from the freezer, soak them, and send them through the food processor so i can feed them to him easier. He won't eat them so i dont bother cooking them and if he smells them in his meat i cooked, he wont touch the meat lol. I have to put them to the back of his throat and that's how he gets his veggies. I guess his urine smells too. I don't smell anything but my dad does. I started your home cooked meal plan a few months ago and it's done wonders. How many oz should he have a day with liver disease and now his kidneys? He's not active and 75-80lbs and i try to give 8oz a day at least of veggies as to not overwhelm him but please let me know if he needs more. Plus he gets up to 16oz of meat a day. Less if he's being picky. I've been going off your recipe measurements and dividing it in a daily portion. Lately his meats have been chicken, turkey, gizzards, and some steak or lean ground beef. And when he wants to be picky with the leftovers, i put the meat in the food processor so he still gets it with his veggies. He's a very difficult eater. And i try to mix brown rice or quinoa with his meals. He gets a pinch of pink salt every day, a raw egg, green immune + powder, probiotics, and milk thistle. I also give him king kanine cbd oil. I'm a lil confused how how much green immune to give him as well. We got control of the diarhea but he still gets a cple watery stools here n there. Usually when he's fought us on the food so he wasn't able to get as much food as he should have. He's getting tired of the force feedings. I can tell when he didn't get quite enough food the day before. It's hard to keep up with a picky eater when i work. Luckily my mom does it while i'm gone so i dont have to give him a big meal after 11pm. I also started giving him merrick dog food as a break in between from having to get force fed and give him that excitement of chewing. He still gets his veggies and meat but we were using it as a filler and break for him. He's still very much hydrated thank goodness cuz he gets the veggies plus drinks plenty of filtered water. I make sure to use filtered water only now. Coconut water won't work with him cuz he'd rather go without than consume anything he don't like. Even if means going days without eating, he'll do it if he had to lol. Hence my dilemma here. I also use a bone broth in his veggies when i have it on hand so it makes a puree, otherwise i use the fat water from cooking the chicken and trurkey and filtered water. Are those enough oz a day or should he be getting more veg and meat for his liver and kidneys? And what carbs do i stay away from? Am i doing things right even? It can all be so overwhelming. Thank you so much for your time and effort. You literally saved my dogs life
@@babyblue797 Difficult to know specifics without the full dogs history and that's another service if your interested: One to One Dog Health Email Consultation and Support Service: healthydogforlife.com/one-to-one-total-dog-health-service/
Fasting is good, so if he wants to fast let him. I like one day a week with a 24hr fast. It's a very healthy practice for the body.
It seems like your doing the right thing, the food totals seem right. Keep the dog on the lean side to protect joints from wear and tear.
If you can gets some raw liver to feed him, say 3-4oz several days a week, that helps.
I also recommend Kidney Support Gold: shrsl.com/3uuxs Supports healthy kidney function including fluid balance
Normal urination and thirst (hydration)
Normal appetite and weight
General vitality and energy
Healthy immunity
Do you know of some things that would help a dog with anemia??
Do you think cayenne pepper help taken either by mouth or in an enema?
How did the condition come about?
Incorporate foods with Vitamin B9: pumpkin, carrots, egg yolks, whole wheat, and rye. A diet rich in iron, protein, and vitamin B12. A raw food diet is best.
The following foods and supplements provide the nutrients that your dog needs to treat anemia.
1. Beef liver which contains iron, protein, B complex, and B12.
2. Kelp powder which contains iodine and other trace minerals.
3. Green vegetables which contains iron and other minerals.
4. Nutritional yeast along with B12 which offers the same benefits as the liver.
5. Vitamin C, from 500 to 2,000 milligrams per day (depending on the dog's size) which helps with the absorption of iron from the intestinal tract.
6. Eggs
7. Sardines
Stay away from drugs and vaccines. All natural diet, all natural remedies.
Thank you very much Dan, appreciate your time and information.
@@fourseasonsnorth Your welcome, a few good ideas there.
hello sir i really need help
my dog wont keep down any food she eats and her liver and kidney levels shows high in blood reports. its been more than a week shes been on IV no improvements and shes losing weight rapidly her ribs are visible .. she was a healthy dog .. doctors dont know what’s happening to her
Give plain coconut water to drink in small amounts often. What you want is fresh food in the diet and take out the commercial food, at least half of it. The kidneys needs healthy liquides running through them and healthy fats running through the liver for 3 months.
So take out half the normal meal and replace with raw eggs, canned sardines (in water), and part cooked and blended green veg. Once that's eaten and held down, start adding a little chicken or other meats. Raw or semi raw is best.
What country do you live in?
Hi Dan can you tell me if my dog has SDMA of 14 but it goes up by 10 points off kidney disease food does that mean she will always need kidney disease food? The other values are in the normal range, and they thought maybe she was dehydrated because she doesn't like to drink on her own. I have to give her water orally every day now. Wondering what your take is on that value being high but others normal. Is that usually pre-kidney disease and does the dog need a kidney disease diet if protein, urea and bun are normal? Thanks!
It's an indicator that's all. It tells me your best starting your still young dog on higher quality nutrition going forward.
I would not go the traditional kidney disease food route as, oddly enough, this food will lead to issues at some point.
I recommend (small dog) transitioning to freeze dried raw or frozen raw meals. Frozen example: Steve's Real Food Freeze-Dried Raw Food Diet for Dogs and Cats, 2-Pack, Turducken Recipe (Turkey & Duck), 1.25 lbs - amzn.to/3CIje5c
Freeze dried: Rawbble Freeze Dried Raw chicken - amzn.to/3YH6GVD
Both great options.
Medium or large dog, you could do a healthier kibble meal:
Here's some information important to keep kidneys and all the rest of the organs healthy plus some extra to do's at the end and ALL important-
If you feed kibble, the best thing to do first is remove 50% of the kibble from the bowl and replace with raw eggs (preferably organic), canned sardines (in plain water with skin & bone intact: 12 Pack Sardines - amzn.to/3vaXrj6), some part cooked and blended veggies like broccoli, kale, green beans, spinach, brussel sprouts, bok choy etc and some meat proteins such as chicken meat, even better.
If not liking to prepare vegetables then these freeze dried greens are antioxidant packed to help protect cells from free radical damage, cellular repair, support immunity, joints, skin issues, heart and eye health: Core Immune CARE Greens: shrsl.com/3uv18
Now your dogs getting live enzymes, probiotics, Omega 3 oils, the highest quality proteins and nutritional assimilation from eggs (100%), and antioxidants, minerals and vitamins from vegetables.
Always add a quality probiotic to improve digestion and gut health: (skin issues/yeast/itchy dogs) use this one: amzn.to/3yoURqU and for all other dogs use this one: shrsl.com/3uv7l
If you want an excellent, VERY low carbohydrate kibble at just 5%, (high carbohydrates cause chronic inflammation, with itchy skin, yeast, poor gut health, ear infection, UTI's and hot spots, and nearly all kibbles are 40+% carbs!).
Ketona has high protein at 47% (dogs thrive on proteins), correct fats at 15% and natural additives, so have a look at Ketona Kibble: healthydogforlife.com/KetonaKibble. I recommend still adding the fresh foods even with the best kibble.
By introducing fresh foods, really lowering carbs use, introducing greens, omega 3's, proteins and a better more suitable kibble, your dog will respond with healing and improved health over the next 12 weeks.
Some must do's:
Zero vaxx once adult (auto immune disease issues)
Very low carbs in diet (cause of inflammation)
No vet drugs, there's effective natural alternatives.
Feed a healthier diet with at least 50% fresh food in it.
NO white foods ie rice, potato, pasta..
@@DanScott1 Hi Dan thank-You so much for all the info! It has been stressful going to the vets because I did a few urine tests and they said my dog still has dilute urine even if its high normal. Two vets told me to withhold water. My dog is not a drinker on her own and I have to give her water and administer it as she will not drink on her wet food. They want to see if she is just dehydrated. I didn't like that option at all. I don't do any vaccines and totally agree. She was on purina symbiotic action prebiotics but I got worried about what was in it and stopped it. Your soil based one has a lot of stuff will it be safe on her sensitive tummy. I still don't know a lot about bentonite clay. Do you know another one. I did see the second one you sent and it looked good but it had sugar in it? I wanted one without sugar. I may try the first one because I love blueberries. I am just not sure how she will react to the dandelion and bentonite clay. The food you showed me looked great, but my dog is allergic to chicken and it has chicken. I looked at the beef but it has alot of beef liver so too high protein. Any otherr options. If I would like to do a home cooked diet, can u give me tips on that and what supplements to use or another dog food. Sorry this is so long. I really think your videos are great and thanks for all the info!!!
@@DanScott1 My dog is nine years old sorry I wrote a reply for you but forgot to say her age.
@@AP-ty1vl Your welcome. The soil based probiotics are fine, but just start small and slow as with any new food or supplement for the first week.
Dandelion is a good option but again start small and slow to observe.
Maybe this food option: Bixby Rawble Lamb amzn.to/3kDbUmX
If doing home cooked, raw or a healthier kibble blend option, I highly recommend my eBook Feed Your Dog Better: healthydogforlife.com/feed-your-dog-better-book-by-dan-scott/
Everything you need to know is in the ebook.
@@AP-ty1vl Ok, thanks. I would look to adding fresh foods into the diet as she's oldr now and needs nutritional support from fresh foods.

Protecting The Kidneys:
It’s crucial to protect and support healthy kidneys to avoid kidney disease in dogs.
1.Feed a fresh, whole food diet. A balanced raw diet will give your dog the protein, vitamins and nutrients he needs to function well. Adding the following to your dog’s regular diet will also help support his system and protect kidney function:
Eggs - easily digested complete food
Small fish like mackerel, anchovies and sardines (canned is good and convenient)
Sprouts
Small seeds - flax or sesame are great (crushed)
Herbs - dandelion and parsley (can gets as tincture if not fresh): Dandelion Root Extract: amzn.to/33KWWT6
2.Add some fresh chopped herbs to your dog’s food - a pinch per 10 lbs up to 1 Tbsp for a dog 100 lbs or larger. If you buy dried herbs, capsules or a tincture, assume the dose on the label is for a 150 lb human and adjust the dose for your dog’s weight.
3.Avoid or minimize vaccines - since they’re a major cause of inflammation and the toxic adjuvants and additives can compromise your dog’s system. Since the kidneys flush toxins from the body, vaccines force the kidneys to work overtime anytime there’s a new toxin unreduced. Your dog’s kidneys don’t like those toxins and will work hard to flush them out.
4.Avoid drugs and toxins - Antibiotics are really hard on the kidneys and drugs that suppress symptoms are not actually doing anythin to heal the real issue. Use silver for antibiotic use: amzn.to/2UXexmC
5.Give a good quality probiotics to improve digestion overall and help the kidneys process better: amzn.to/3xqa2i0
Your dog’s kidneys are amazing organs that often don’t get the credit they deserve. If your dog has kidney issues, using fresh food as therapy and avoiding the drugs/vaccines the kidneys will suffer through is the way to go for your dogs health long term.
6. If you want to feed a kibble, this one is the best for high protein (47%) and very low carbs (7%) which is excellent plus natural viatmins and minerals: Ketona Kibble: healthydogforlife.com/KetonaKibble
I'd still mix some fresh foods into this diet as listed above ie eggs, canned sardines (in water) and lots of part cooked and blended veggies. Probiotic: amzn.to/3J3IC7w and live enzymes: amzn.to/37MrINq and a gut guard: amzn.to/3AwRsYe
Hello, sorry to hear about your Baby. How is your dog doing ?
Sir, my dog was having a fever, the doctors said he has cough in his chest, all the medicines are given but since than his breathing is too fast. The doctor also recommended me some medicines for kidney functioning. Is breathing too fast or getting tired fast is a symtop of kidney failure?
It is yes, but there are a few, so not necessarily. If there's infection, use silver for a 7 or 14 day only protocol. Add 1tsp to food or give direct once daily. Must add probiotics to food at the same time: amzn.to/3J3IC7w
My recommendation is to not use medicines as they are bad for the kidneys. Instead here's my thoughts:

Hi my 9 year old chiwawa was just diagnosed with acute kidney/ pancreas disease. She is not in hospital for 4 days. Do you think she will be ok?
What was her condition when released? What meds is she taking? What is her diet?
@FreeAmerican-mm2my She was eating and happy to get into the car. She was urinating more than normal and then immediately drinking water. We noticed she was sleeping more. She is only 9 and she is jack Russell and chiwawa mix. Today the vet said she is very up beat. He gave her a shot of vitamin B12 and a antibiotic the day of the taking blood and she was a new dog the next day. The labs came back and he said she has acute kidney/ pancreas failure thank you
And she eats all homemade meals low fat. Once in a while she will get at out cats food but hardly ever. She loves cat food I know its bad for her. The meds she is on is really nothing other than an antibotic she was on for a UTI about two weeks ago
@@billyflanagan9657 Really needs a fresh food only diet going forward. Transition to a frezze dried raw diet as the easiest start: Bixby Rawbble Freeze Dried Raw chicken - amzn.to/3YH6GVD
Bixby Rawble - Freeze Dried Lamb - amzn.to/3kDbUmX
Transition slowly new food to old and add these probiotics from the first meal: amzn.to/3yoURqU Start them small and slow the first week.
The pancreas issue is certainly pre-diabetic, hopefully still working though, hence the increased thirst and urination.
Also add these greens to one meal daily: amzn.to/49w0bKR will healp a lot.
NO vaccines, carbohydrates or other vet meds, ask me first for natural options. Begin ASAP.
Needs trasitioning to raw now, ok.
@DanScott1 omg I love you your awesome I certainly will. I hope in the link I can get back to you. Thanks so much we really appreciate it. Billy
My dog's recent urinalysis and blood test compared with the test he had 1.5 yrs. ago showed increase in trace protein in urine, presence of blood cells in urine & has tested + Lyme and Anapasmosis both times. He now has begining stages of kidney disease with 1.6 cretinine, Bun 44, both High. On Low side were Total Protein 5.2, Albumin 2.6 SDMA level was in normal but higher level 13.
I did give 1M of Ledlum after the Lyme diagnosis last year, and he still tests positive on latest test this year. But no symptoms because i did give a 30 day antibotic for the Lyme last year.
Once the positive test for Lyme, will that keep showing up on the blood tests as antibodies thus giving a positive result going forward? Should I once again give the 1M Ledlum 3x day for 3 days even tho he's symptom free but still shows + Lyme on recent test? I am not going to give antibotics again.
Stopped giving vaccines, just titers. Also no medications, the only bad thing i do is the flea / tick collar. But we live in a high deer tick infested area in the North East & i even got lyme disease 2x myself. Do you think this is what is elevating his kidney disease symptoms and not my Vet's thinking it is from the Lyme Disease he had? If so, i will remove it - but i'd rather not since this is tick central. I do give him a break in winter by not wearing the Seresto collar 3-4 mo out of the year.
I am giving a frozen gently cooked wet food and a bit of kibble (Open Farm dry & Bixbi Liberty) along with fermented Goats Milk
I can give you a few pointers here or a complete breakdown, diet plan and supplements/remedies if you join my One to One Dog Health Email Consultation and Support Service: healthydogforlife.com/one-to-one-total-dog-health-service/
Let me know, lots to think about here.
Veterinary secrets is a youtube channel I watch regularly with Dr. Jones, he's is a Veterinarian. I live in PA, near a dense forest and it's tick central too. And my pug got lymes disease. Dr.Jone's has a video for Aloe Vera with a blend of recommended essential oils its effective, It really does prevent Any ticks or fleas from getting on my dog. I quit giving him flea and tick medicine. And I feel so much better about it.
You can give Ledum palustre 30c (Lyme) - amzn.to/3Ilu3eU Good results with this.
Make your own flea collar with standard synthetic cloth collar, just add drops of Neem oil: amzn.to/3iV0Igq
and some cederwood and eucalyptus oils and your good to go. Ticks won't go near neem oil and you can dab on a few drops neat in the usual places also.
I highly recommend no vaccines as I know they influence chronic Lyme positive results as Lyme really sets in people/dogs with co-infections. Lyme positive with no symptoms is ok, carry on as normal. Don't use vet meds!
@@tamd4121 Add in Neem oil, it's fullproof.
@@DanScott1 what do you think of my vet's suggestion to give dog Ace Inhibitor medicine? I am getting another blood test to see phospherous level. If high, i am thinking about giving Epikitin (a phosp. binder) instead of the vet's medicine. Did you ever hear of this Epikitin? Could it send the Calcium level too high? (that is what my vet said)
Last friday, we went to vet to check up my dog's bloated stomach. It was ascites. We already gave her diuretics and after just 2 days, her bloated stomach full of fluids were gone. Now we have to medicate her since the vet said her liver has some color white and her 2 kidneys also have damages. She's also anemic. She was also advised to have low-protein diet. Now our problem is she's not eating for almost 3 days now. We force feed her with wet foods. We tried a lot from malunggay soup with chicken, rice with soup, fish, banana, egg, etc. But she won't eat by herself so we force feed her. However, she throws up her food after some time... She's so skinny now... I don't wanna lose hope. I want her to live. Please help me how can we feed her food without her throwing up every after she eats? Do you also know what foods that can also be cooked and homemade that are low-protein which she can eat?
Can you make up some bone broth, here's how: ruclips.net/video/laf3CHn8frU/видео.html
and get a turkey blaster to force feed from the side of the mouth. This gives lots of nutrition, video explains.
She can't take solids right now and don't feed white foods or processed foods only fresh foods like eggs, canned sardines, veg, chicken, green tripe.
It's not so much low protein as quality raw protein, no cooked fats and no white anything.
@@DanScott1 thank you for your advice! However, sadly... my basset hound named bonbon just left us an hour ago.... I still can't process it... I just want to cry and go to sleep and see her again in my dreams...
@@pauuu395 My most heartfelt condolences, it's devastating initially, Ive been there, I know how you feel.
Stay positive, it was simply her time to move into spirit.
The wonderful thing about dogs is that they teach us to be present and happy.
She did not care about yesterday or tomorrow, or even transitioning, she just stayed present in the moment and felt joy in that presence.
When your ready to lift a heavy heart, some time from now, know that thoughts and dreams of her means she's visiting you in spirit, so be happy as bonbon always is and smile, because connection to our spirit dogs is only felt from a joyfull heart.
Raw dog food. Primal is a great brand. Goats milk. Udi oil. This will heal most issues. If not all.
Hello Im currently waiting for my dog to get out from pyometra surgery, my concern are her kidney levels, they were high and still are.

Yes it can be tougher for an older dog to switch, doesn't mean he can't or won't. Raw is actually easier to digest than cooked food but takes time to transition over. Maybe try some freeze dried raw, add water and mix in with current food?
Otherwise get a little raw green tripe and see if he likes something new, raw and smelly? It's a complete food too, so if he eats it, keep going.
An easy recipe is eggs, sardines and veg. mixed up and served. To this I'd add Colostrum: amzn.to/3H79rad

If he doesnt want to eat, can i rule the 10-15 min strict rules of eating? Or what should I do so he can get his appetite back? please help me,
Im starting to regret bringin my dog to check up at vet, because the vet just suddenly decide he needs the IV, but my dog seems fine and still super energetiv, after the first IV fluids, he became a bit down and starting to be realllllyy picky
Please help
The vet does not understand the raw food diet. You know this when you ask them what the best diet is and they come up with expensive mush that they sell!.
Lean fresh protein, veg, eggs, canned sardines, some offal (eg liver ), probiotics: amzn.to/3xqa2i0
AND no drugs, flea&tick, dewormers, vaccines etc.
Vets probably seeking money over care?
Gets some coconut water from the supermarket, dogs love it, very refreshing and some electrolytes.
Most vets say don’t feed them raw-total lie! My dog switched to raw pork and duck, goats milk, udi oil-kidney failure is gone. Cured.
@@DanScott1 sorry for the late reply. I haven't done any bloodtest again, but I still give my dog raw everyday (occasionally cooked food if I'm out of town, just for the convenience for the household to fed him). He is still healthy, no sign of sickness or whatsoever. For now.. I will stick to raw diet for sure.
Hope for the best for the bloodtest that probably done on sept this year!
What do I do if it's a kidney stone issue? He's 13 years old and can't have surgery
Which type of stone? I can help with remedies.
@@DanScott1I really appreciate that you responded as quickly as you did. Normally I never hear back on RUclips comments but I've been out of options and I figured I'd try asking here so thank you so much for responding. As for the kind of stone, all I know is he has been producing struvite crystals. I hope that's enough information but if not, I can ask the vet for any other specific information he may be able to provide. It got real bad after his kidneys suffered inflammation but the vet suggested several sessions of a laser therapy which seem to have helped bring the kidneys back down to normal size. I still don't know what to do about the stones though and I would love to know what new diet he needs to halt the struvite crystals production in his body. I also would expect some extent of kidney damage after how much he visibly hurt at his worst so I am curious about what supplements or medications I can get him on to help improve kidney function to see if I can help give him a happy older age. The doctor had said that if his inflammation didn't go down that the best course of action would have been to put him down but fortunately he responded well to the laser therapy. He still still has his days of discomfort though and that's why I want to see what healthy options I can feed him to try to extend his kidney health. The doctor last said that he had done everything he was able to do so if my boy has any chance at living another few years, I'd likely have to figure it out myself. He said that dogs can live a fairly normal life as they wait to pass the stones so if he can wait on the stone passing I guess I can too. What I'm more concerned about is his kidney health after how much he hurt at his peak pain. I want to try to change his diet to support his kidneys as much as possible and if need be, get him on whatever vitamins, supplements and/or medications he may need.
My dog won’t eat though 😩 please help!
I know nothing of your dogs history but stop drugs/vaccines etc and first use bone broth: amzn.to/3GNkLY2
Once eating the broth, try a meal of soft boiled egg, canned sardines (in water), part cooked and blended veg.
Give coconut water to drink. Small amounts.
No dry foods. Only fresh foods.
is it normal for my puppy to drink less water if he eats fresh food? There will be days he doesn't drink at all
You are correct, now the water is in the food. Kibble is around 8% moisture while fresh food is 70% moisture.
Keep the water changed daily and dont use tap water. Mineral water : ).
@@DanScott1 thank u! I always give filtered water !

Dear Dr Dan. About dogs with stones, I want to cook for my dog that has stones problems
Ok and how can I help?
@@DanScott1 Cooking for him but someone said not more than 25% of protein and he is 65 lbs. he has ammonium struvites stones. What is the max of protein that dogs with this condition can have ?? Thanks
@@lidapittenger6716 Linda, I know that's what 'someone' said but like most they don't know the truth of it, which so many times is the exact opposite. Here's some research I did for you:
Your vet will likely recommend a low protein, prescription diet. But you should avoid these diets because …
• They’re extremely low in protein.
• They’re very acidic.
• High starch diets are high in magnesium, contributing to struvite stone formation.
• They’re highly processed and offer poor quality nutrition.
• They’re usually not complete and balanced.
• High carbohydrate diets are inflammatory.
So these diets can actually worsen your dog’s health. Instead, feed your dog a home-made diet that creates more acidity in your dog.
Dissolving bladder stones with diet can take 8 to 12 weeks and sometimes as long as 20 weeks. It’s a good idea to repeat x-rays at 8 weeks to see if the stones are getting smaller. If not, they may not be struvite stones.
Food To Manage Struvite Stones
Dogs develop struvite stones when their urine is alkaline and saturated with magnesium and phosphate. Struvite stones usually stem from bacterial infections.
Dogs who produce a high concentration of urea may be more susceptible to struvite stones. That’s because bacterial urease converts urea to ammonia, a component of struvite.
Animal proteins are acidifying. So, to manage struvite stones, feed your dog a raw meat based diet with other acidic foods.
INCLUDE Acidic Foods For Struvite Stones
• Chicken (be sure this is organic and free range)
• Beef
• Eggs
• Pork
• Cottage cheese
• Brown rice
• Black beans
• Chickpeas
• Kidney beans
AVOID Alkaline Foods For Struvite Stones
• Broccoli
• All sprouts
• Cabbage
• Pumpkin
• Asparagus
• Carrots
• Cucumbers
• Green beans
• Peas
• Kale
• Spinach
• Sweet potatoes
• Swiss chard
• Fruit: bananas, apples, pineapple, strawberries
Cranberries
Cranberries can be a good addition to your dog’s diet to help prevent struvite stones. Research shows cranberries can help manage and prevent UTIs. Infections are often at the root of struvite stone formation.
Cranberries also create more acidity in your dog, which helps prevent struvite stones.
Always buy organic cranberries. It’s a fruit that’s otherwise grown with a lot of pesticides. If your dog will eat whole cranberries, sprinkle a few on his food to start. Unsweetened freeze-dried cranberries can be another good option.
Here's a dog dedicated cranberry based supplement for greater convenience: amzn.to/3fBhKiu
Apple Cider Vinegar: amzn.to/33n2vHC
Many dogs with struvite stones respond well to regular apple cider vinegar (ACV). Again, it helps acidify your dog’s urine to discourage struvite stones from forming.
Buy raw, organic unfiltered ACV. Mix it with your dog’s food (or water, if she likes it), in these amounts according to weight.
Up to 15 lbs … 1 tsp
Up to 35 lbs … 2 tsp
Up to 85 lbs … 1 Tbsp
Plus gives lots of mineral or filtered water. NEVER tap!
Just don't want you wondering down that wrong path with your dog.
Thank you so much. He turns his head away from raw. Must be cooked. He hates raw and he does not eat
@@lidapittenger6716 Ok, cook the meat like the French, rare.
My dog has UTI and has been in antibiotics for 3 days. She just started eating again, however she doesn't drink a lot of water which I'm quite concerned about. So I have to force her to drink.
Our clinics here only do cbc, so i don't know her creatinine levels. Are there other ways to know?
@@aryentarg9961 She needs some fresh food in the diet not just dry food to get more moisture into her.
Give some eggs, canned sardines in water, part cooked and blended veggies and some meats.. all great dog food. Add some soil based probiotics to help gut health and improve digestion: amzn.to/3yoURqU
Give some plain coconut water to drink here and there, more attractive than water for her. Not too much.
Cut the carbs to minimum, under 10% and replace with proteins, as above. The carbs cause the UTI's, too much yeast in the body. Also stay away from vet drugs, vaxx and any sugars. None needed. And for the kidneys as regards remedies, give Kidney Support Gold: amzn.to/3KB679O to bring numbers into line.
Help me doctor. Can i reverse my dogs stage four kidney disease. That's what my vet said to muxh protein cause i was giving him steak liver eggs. Help
It's not from that diet, that's for sure. More likely from annual vaccinations, vet drugs and commercial pet foods, that's the usual way and that I do know.
Here's some help:
Protecting The Kidneys:
It’s crucial to protect and support healthy kidneys to avoid kidney disease in dogs.
Feed a fresh, whole food diet. A balanced raw diet will give your dog the protein, vitamins and nutrients he needs to function well. Adding the following to your dog’s regular diet will also help support his system and protect kidney function:
Eggs - easily digested complete food
Small fish like mackerel, anchovies and sardines (canned is good and convenient: amzn.to/3vaXrj6)
Sprouts
Small seeds - flax or sesame are great (crushed)
Herbs - dandelion: amzn.to/33KWWT6 (excellent option for kidney health) and parsley (can gets as tincture if not fresh)
Add some fresh chopped herbs to your dog’s food - a pinch per 10 lbs up to 1 Tbsp for a dog 100 lbs or larger. If you buy dried herbs, capsules or a tincture, assume the dose on the label is for a 150 lb human and adjust the dose for your dog’s weight.
Avoid or minimize vaccines - since they’re a major cause of inflammation and the toxic adjuvants and additives can compromise your dog’s system. Since the kidneys flush toxins from the body, vaccines force the kidneys to work overtime anytime there’s a new toxin unreduced. Your dog’s kidneys don’t like those toxins and will work hard to flush them out.
Avoid drugs and toxins - Antibiotics are really hard on the kidneys and drugs that suppress symptoms are not actually doing anythin to heal the real issue. Use silver for antibiotic use: amzn.to/2UXexmC
Give a good quality probiotics to improve digestion overall and help the kidneys process better: amzn.to/3xqa2i0
Your dog’s kidneys often don’t get the care they need. If your dog has kidney issues, using fresh food as therapy and avoiding the drugs/vaccines the kidneys will suffer through is the way to go for your dogs health long term.

@@DanScott1 thank you doctor . Thank you so much. He's just laying here today will be two days if he don't drink water. That vet charged me 5000 for an over night stay I know it was all about the money I couldn't afford. I can't lose my dog. Thank you so much
@@DanScott1 I made him yesterday cod liver ground turkey meat but cooked it beef cooked but chopped it up and egg shells crushed real small . He only took a few bites that was it. No water at all. I shot a few drops of water in his mouth. I did give him the IV fluids they gave me and the meds were in his food which he didn't take which I knew those meds you mentioned are bullshit. He's 12. I know he will eat chicken but he's allergic to that and diarrheas blood. I also know that if I can fix myself I know I can fix him. I'm on the meat diet and on no more meds after a health scare I just went through.
@@DanScott1 one more thing and sorry to bother you. Now the battle is just trying to get him to eat and drink
@@DanScott1 sorry again doctor. Is flax seed from the supermarket good
what if a dog don't want to eat anything at all
No history here, could be a few things?
Fast until wanting to eat, then bone broth first day. Keep hydrated with mineral water and a few drinks of plain coconut water during the day.
Dog weak, give a few licks of honey.
My dog is only 4 yrs old and I just found out today that she has lymes disease & kidney failure. I'm freaking out right now bc the vet told us that she most likely won't turn around.
First off Kate, what level is the kidney failure at? I'd need specifics on that. Also for the Lyme give this and re-test when it's done: amzn.to/3rsrJ0r
Veterinarian Steven Tobin has reported that he has used Ledum (1M potency, three times daily for three days - yes, that isall, just three days) in treating hundreds of dogs for Lyme with very good success.
You'll also need to think about a better, healthier fresh food diet and supplements for those kidneys to keep them going.
@@DanScott1 I'm looking at her tests now and here are the results: CREA 3.7mg/dl 0.5-1.8 high, BUN 46mg/dl 7-27 high, PHO 7.3 mg/do 2.5-6.8 high, & ALB 2.2 g/do 2.3-4.0 low . So that's everything on the test that was off. I believe CREA is the kidney right and it's extremely high on the chart.
@@KateKosmo Yes, you'll want to treat the liver with supplements and a healthier more fresh food diet. The number looks like stage one to me, so there's time, it's not at failure point but you must help the kidneys now with diet and supplements.
My ebook tells you what to do with diet improvement:
healthydogforlife.com/feed-your-dog-better-book-by-dan-scott/
For supplements: Dandelion Root Extract: amzn.to/33KWWT6
Four Leaf Rover - Colostrum: amzn.to/3H79rad
and Four Leaf Rover - Gut Guard - amzn.to/3AwRsYe
@@KateKosmo How is your dog doing now? Hope he was able to her your dog. My dog just got diagnose with stage 1. What were your dogs SDMA results? Mine were high and it was mainly this that was high for my dog.
@@AP-ty1vl her results were extremely high, in the red. She's still alive but it has taken a big toll on her. Idk if the probiotics, vitamins are working or not. But I did put her on hill science diet kidney & it's helped with her big time.

Dogs are omnivores not carnivores
We beg to differ then.
Basically a commercial for raw food diet. No help at all
Three diets actually: The Healthier Kibble Diet, Home Cooked Food Diet and the Raw Food Diet.
This video was all about the symptoms and causes of kidney problems and yes, the solution is in a book you buy for 20 bucks. Try getting such a big issue resolved by your vet for 20 bucks or trawling YT for free over time to figure it out, which you could, 98% of my video are full of free information for example.
Dogs are not carnivores they are omnivores!
As you please.
