My diabetic dog's blood sugar is 8.2. Is this too high?

Question

Hi my dog was diagnosed with diabetes around 6 months ago. He is on 8 ui of caninsulin twice daily. He also had a bad attack of pancreatitis. I've just done a blood test and he's reading 8.2 . His blood reader is specifically for dogs and cats. He's due his food and insulin again at 8pm. Does this sound about right. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Male | unneutered | 6 years old | 24 lbs

Hello, sorry to hear about Asbo. Based on my conversion, it appears that His glucose is slightly elevated on that last blood sugar check. Therefore, you should continue to give his scheduled dose of insulin and food at 8pm. Hope this helps and best of luck.
