Resumo

Obesity is a metabolic disorder which has increasing in alarming proportions all over the world. This study objective was to evaluate kidney and liver function in 14 mixed breed neutered bitches submitted to a weight gain program and subsequent weight loss treatment. At the end of weight gain program, the bitches fed an ad libitum way with hypercaloric diet was divided in two groups, one which has reached 14,58% and another 20,43% of overweight. In the weight loss treatment the bitches were organized in two new groups, fed a 60% of energetic requirement for maintenance with hypocaloric or maintenance diet. The kidney was evaluated by urine specific gravity, urea and creatinine serum levels, urinary GGT and urinary protein to urinary creatinine ratio. Liver evaluation was made by serum ALT, ALP, GGT, albumin, cholesterol and bilirubins. The weight gain increases urea and decreases cholesterol and GGT serum levels. The weight loss decreases urine specific gravity, urea and serum cholesterol, by the way increases GGT activity, returning to the same levels of the beginning of the study. The short time overweight does not induced deleterious effects on kidney and liver function. There is no difference between hypocaloric or maintenance diet in terms of weight loss and quality of kidney and liver function
