I always do the full panel. The issue is that a partial, you still only have partial. And if you suspect issues, you end up running them anyway. Of course it helps that a full panel here is not that much more than a partial (I think it was a bit under 60 or 140 for full). LOL though I did full on Sayblee because she WOULDN'T eat and full on Arwen because she gets almost nothing to eat in order to keep weight down. Both were fine.
Thyroid testing
-
My 14 year old Nika has been having some issues. When I took her to the vet her blood test showed the T4 thyroid was low. Years ago I had her tested and she was normal. I had forgotten about the thyroid being a problem. There are a number of issues and problems that can come up as a result of hypothyrodism. Please see this link:

If you suspect your senji to have any of the problems listed get them tested.
My Red and White had low thyroid as well. He was very aggressive in behavior. -
