Hi there and thank you for using Pet Coach to address your concern. The ALP being elevated in a young puppy like this is normal and to be expected. Growing puppies will typically have an elevated level due to bone growth. This is nothing to be concerned about. I would follow the recommendations for treating the symptoms as your vet should have recommended. If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me. I am also available via consultation if needed.
