blood tests

I got the results of a blood test today that i got taken on a 15 month old pup last week and i think to be honest most of us Irish are well behind the ozzies when it comes to this scientific part of the training schedule of a racing greyhound and it would be a great service from the igb if they could incorporate a seminar on blood test in there skillnets program

I for one have very little knowledge on how to read a blood test correctly or how to correct any imbalances in the readings

Here are the results of my test so if anyone would like discuss the readings with me in my chat box at the bottom of my blog i would greatly appreciate it
