Urine SG is usually 1.025 in a diabetic, usually a fair bit lower/ isosthenuric in a Fanconi.</p> <p>Also in my experience Fanconi dogs do&nbsp; not get cataracts as their blood glucose is actually always normal. How long have the cataracts been present? I have had a couple of Fanconis over the years and they are not fun. short to medium term prognosis is reasonable, long term sucks.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/80036?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 27 Dec 2012 15:39:07 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:57967296-be1f-41df-beb5-12072d76d9c5James Laidlaw<p>Some stuff on VIN about Fanconi syndrome related to jerky treats that are manufactured in Asia - no chance of these? &nbsp;I had one client in London feeding these. &nbsp;Otherwise doesn&#39;t sound like diabetes, but UPC might be good to check if protein significant and culture to rule out UTI?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
