I have PM'd FrostyPaws about this, as he is studying in the medical field and may be able to offer better info than I can.

If it's not straight babesia, then I am suspecting kidney failure.

How old is he?
What is be being fed?
Does he get enough water?

There is debate on this, but I am 100% positive that those super-high-protein diets (and sometimes cheap kibble) can lead to kidney failure ... especially if there's not enough water available.

Good luck,

Jack

PS: Call any/all good dogmen, local to your friend's area, and you should be able come up with a good vet somewhere within a reasonable drive.
