The normal ranges do depend upon the machine and methods used; the testing vet/lab should be able to confirm and interpret the results. It is recommended to use a product that has been developed for a condition in th correct species so the canitone would be the preferred option but milk thistle is often used for liver issues in dogs where alternatives are not available
