Northern NJ area Vets? Clinics who can do venous blood gas test?

Basenji Health Issues & Questions
  • Fanconi has recently reared its ugly head with my 9 year old basenji. Id like to get him treated but all of my local vets have very little knowledge with it, along with the Gonto protocol. The vet currently handling my basenji does not have the capabilities for venous blood gas testing and im having a hard time finding someone who can. Is anyone here from north jersey? Do you h ave any suggestions on vets or clinics to get the test done? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    That is a huge relief about the cheek swab…She absolutely HATED having her blood drawn and has been mistrustful of the vet and vet techs ever since. I didn't not realize that there were many errors in the original test. I stopped frequenting this forum shortly after I had her test done and haven't really heard anything from the basenji world until I got the e-mail. I will definitely get this re-test done as soon as possible and will pick up some strips tomorrow so I can start testing her urine. Thankfully she has not been showing any signs of poor health and has always done well on checkups.

    Hey Terry! I'm excited to know Jojo is coming home on Sunday!! Can't wait to meet her. I take Hollie to Callahan Drive Animal Hospital off I-75 North in Knoxville. I have seen two vets there. Dr. James Hilla, DVM is the head vet/owner and Dr Alisha Harbin. They were both thorough with the exam(s) and clearly communicated things to me. They treated me and Hollie exactly like I wanted us to be treated. I too, had been searching for the right vet(s). I think I have found them!!! They also seem to have basenji expereince. They commented on how calm Hollie was to be a basenji mix. Check out their website, here's the link, http://www.callahandriveanimalhospital.com/default.php Good luck and let me know when Jojo is ready for visitors!!
