    Join us in this live and interactive webinar and learn about liver disease in the dog. Throughout this 4 part series of Pet Health Summit sessions you will hear from veterinary experts in the area of liver disease in the dog.

    In this first segment, you will learn how to approach canine patients with increased liver enzymes on routine blood work analysis. Dr. Leveille-Webster - a board-certified small animal medicine internist with expertise in dog and cat hepatobiliary disorders - will discuss a systematic algorithm, medicated approach to determining why a dog has increases in either serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) or serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT).  Discussion will include:

    - When these enzyme elevations are important
    - How to differentiate whether they are due to primary or secondary hepatobiliary disorders
