Re: B12 test

correct... dogs do not need to be fasted for the B12 test....

However...
if giving B12 pills.... pills need to be stopped 1 week prior to the B12 test
if giving B12 shots.... shots need to be stopped 1 month prior to the B12 test

Re: PAN-TENEX QUESTION- NEW AT EPI

you are very welcome..... however, please do ask the vet why every two hrs... as they may have reasons that we are not aware of to benefit the dog. :)
