Assessing Amino Acid Concentrations in the Urine of Dogs

■■ Purpose• Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. We are trying

to establish normal reference ranges for urinary amino acids in healthy dogs consuming dry, canned or commercial raw diets or home-prepared diets.

■■ Participation Requirements• Healthy dogs consuming dry, canned or commercial raw diets or

home-prepared diets• Ineligible:

• Beagles and Greyhounds• Dogs consuming foreign or domestic jerky treats in the past

12 months• Before beginning the study, you will need to complete the Feeding

History Form asking about your pet and what they currently eat at home to find out if he/she qualifies to be in the study.

■■ Owner Responsibilities• Complete a questionnaire about your dog and what your dog is

currently eating at home• Collect a small amount of urine in a clean cup we provide• Submit 2-3 photographs of the label of your dog’s current diet

■■ Benefits• There is no cost to you to participate in this trial.• Results from this study may contribute to the development of a

reference range for urinary amino acids in canine urine that will be used as part of a larger study to understand the severity and duration of urinary amino acid loss in dogs that develop acquired Fanconi syndrome.
