I completely understand why you're worried about your young dog experiencing frequent urination alongside an elevated BUN level. BUN, or Blood Urea Nitrogen, is an indicator that helps us understand how well the kidneys are functioning. Frequent urination could be a sign of several issues, including urinary tract infections, kidney problems, or even diabetes.
In young dogs, an increase in BUN and frequent urination can sometimes point to a kidney issue or dehydration. It's important to ensure your dog has constant access to fresh water to maintain proper hydration. Also, monitor their urination to note any additional signs like changes in color or odor, which can provide further clues.
Keep an eye out for symptoms like lethargy, vomiting, or a marked decrease in appetite, as these could indicate a more serious problem needing immediate attention. Until you're able to consult with a vet, try to keep track of your dog's drinking and urination patterns, as this information will be helpful.
Given the complexity of your pet's symptoms, it would be a good idea to book a video consult with one of our veterinarians on Dial A Vet. They'll be able to give more personalized advice and determine if further testing or treatment is necessary.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
