What is kidney failure?
Your kidneys are located towards your lower back, either side of your spine, and help to remove toxins from your body and filter your blood.
They then send toxins to your bladder to be removed from the body during urination.
Kidney failure happens when the pair of organs lose their ability to fulfil their function sufficiently.
If your kidneys fail your body can become overloaded with toxins and this can be life-threatening if the condition is left untreated.

There are a number of symptoms that can occur during kidney failure, but it is also possible that none can be present too.

How can you treat dogs with kidney disease?
It is predicated that more than one in 10 dogs will get kidney disease in their lifetime.
Dogs who have moderate to severe chronic kidney disease may be prone to dehydration, so you may notice your pet is lethargic.
Dialysis and kidney transplants are not readily available for dogs, so treatment is usually aimed at tackling the symptoms.
You should take your dog to the vet if you notice symptoms such as:
