My dog is diagnosed with chronic kidney failure with a value ranging 25. She’s not eating nor drinking anything. The vet told she cannot survive as the kidney damage is extreme. Do you have any suggestions

Unfortunately your vet is right, chronic kidney failure cannot be cured. If Jenny isn't eating or drinking anything, it sounds like her quality of life is very poor. You may need to consider letting her go, it may be the best option for her.
