You do not need the full strips unless you are checking for other things. Just make sure you get the strips that test for glucose not ketones!
You can buy Bayer Diastix or Bayer Clinistix for strictly glucose urine testing.

So Buddy's urinalysis showed he is on the too acidic side contributing to the calcium oxalate crystals in his urine. I got these test strips to see if his diet change is making his urine more alkaline. They work pretty good and it only takes a minute to see the result. It comes with a color chart to compare the strip to. My last Basenjis had their urine too alkaline which resulted in bladder infections. I got this on Amazon.

It's getting a little more alkaline as I reduce the protein and continue to add water to his meals. I'm going to drop off a urine sample this weekend to see if there's crystals still in his urine.

Fingers crossed for Buddy
