My vet is a good one, he does not show emotion, but he takes in strays sorts them out for no money and then finds them a good home.
If and remember i am not a vet, you dog had renal failure i think you would have notices she was very sick. When my Border Collie went into renal failure at 14 she could hardly walk, her breath stunk terrible and she was shivering all the time, so it may just be the start of it and that can be treated
wishing you and your dog all the best

Thank you Shirleystarr. I really appreciate this. I don't like to hold prejudices and I'm aware that I could be letting my fear cause me to think negatively about vets. I try to rationalise but sometimes my emotional reactions get the better of me. Thank you for giving me an alternative way of thinking that is more reasonable.
And I'm also grateful for the information about your poor collie. I'm so sorry about her. Myrtle's breath was really starting to smell as well. But she was quite well and only beginning to show signs of illness, so I hope you're right that she's only in the start of kidney failure and that it can be treated.
