The diabetic pet is considered regulated when its blood glucose levels remain within an acceptable range on a regular basis. Acceptable levels for dogs are between 5 and 10 mmol/L or 90 to 180 mg/dL. [64] [65] The range is wider for diabetic animals than non-diabetics, because insulin injections cannot replicate the accuracy of a working pancreas.

Striped hyenas are known to kill dogs in their range. [160] Dogs as introduced predators have affected the ecology of New Zealand, which lacked indigenous land-based mammals before human settlement. [161] Dogs have made 11 vertebrate species extinct and are identified as a 'potential threat' to at least 188 threatened species worldwide. [162]
This method allows for normal levels of thyroid hormone in tissue and elsewhere whilst keeping the risk of iatrogenic hyperthyroidism low. The treatment dose for dogs is 10 times that of humans due to a shorter half-life of serum thyroxine and poorer gastrointestinal absorption. Many factors such as whether treatment is once daily or twice ...
