how could a vet not diagnose a dog with acute kidney failure when they saw this dog every month for 1 1/2 year?How can I take my dog to the vet every month for a year and a half and they didn't diagnose him with acute kidney failure until the day before he died.

cause vets don't know what they are doing! they pretend. its a guessing game to them, and then they take your money. by you going monthly they made more money, which is all vets care about.

Boy, the first answerer sure is carrying a grudge. Every vet I've ever used was good & cared for animals.
The key word is "acute". That means, simply put, "really sudden". The dog was fine at it's last visit, then a couple of weeks later, kidney failure.
Sorry for your loss.

First, because "acute kidney failure" occurs suddenly. It's not something that came on over months or more. And secondly because renal failure isn't diagnosed simply on a physical exam--specific diagnostic blood testing is required to diagnose renal insufficiency/failure.
I'm very sorry for your loss.
