yearly blood panel?

[luvthemud]

Does anyone have blood tests done on their dog during their yearly checkup? Pretty common thing to do for RAW feeders to do to monitor things, but now that I am on kibble, I wonder if I should keep doing it? Vet never suggests it so if the dog appears healthy, should I bother? What are your guys', and gals', thoughts?

No real need for it as the feed is formulated to consistently provide everything the dog needs/ When you were feeding raw you were unable to do that and the test was just to make sure the pup was getting enough of all of the required elements that are need for good health.
