Diabetes in Dogs - Alphatrak Test Strips and Syringes

Caninsulin can be found HERE

Diabetes is a common condition in dogs, especially older or obese dogs. The most common form of diabetes in dogs is insulin-deficiency diabetes, which is marked by the inability of the pet’s body to produce enough insulin on its own. Diabetes occurs when glucose builds up in the blood instead of going into cells for use as energy.

Dogs can develop diabetes, a chronic condition that occurs when their bodies are no longer able to produce or use insulin properly. When a dog has diabetes, his blood sugar is too high (hyperglycemia), which can lead to serious complications. Because diabetes doesn’t go away on its own, it must be treated with insulin injections daily and an appropriate diet.

How is diabetes diagnosed in Dogs?

Your Vet will first test your dog for the presence of glucose and ketones in the urine. If indicated, the next step is to measure your dog's blood glucose concentration. The diagnosis only becomes definite when glucose is found both in the urine and at a high level in the blood.
