One of my Basenjis is also diagnosed with early kidney disease. The vet prescribed Enalapril Maleate (generic for Vasotec). My vet allowed me to choose whatever prescription food I wanted to use. After some research I chose Blue Buffalo BLUE Natural Veterinary Diet KS Kidney Support. I looked into and tried a more holistic food, Dr. Harvey's - a dehydrated food, but Kushika couldn't manage to eat it without getting it all over the walls, kitchen floor, and herself so we went back to the kibble. I liked the Dr. Harvey food AND you can call to talk to Dr. Harvey, who asked me to send Kushika's lab results to him so he could make specific recommendations dependent on those results. Kushika came to live with us at almost 10 years old and was immediately diagnosed with kidney disease. At age 12+ she is still with us, going strong and looking better than when she arrived.
How long to get Fanconi Test Results Back?
-
We just sent Bella's sample off for Fanconi testing. She was a rescue from a BYB who's parents are both AKC registered but not Fanconi tested.
Keeping our fingers crossed, and wondering how long it usually takes to get the results back.
-
Usually 3 to 4 wks
-
30 t0 60 days. Ours took longer than usual because of vacations and other things that were going on at the University of Mo.

When I sent my kit off, I got impatient to see how long it would take, so I went onto the website and contacted them with the number they'd given for the test. They e-mailed me right back with the link to the site results showing my dog was clear - if you don't hear in about 3 weeks, try that.
-

-

No, I meant it takes about a week to get the test and usually 2 to 3 weeks for the results once they are received back at the lab.
Please read my post about breeding on the other thread
