I'd get a second opinion. Dogs with renal issues aren't typically ravenously hungry. Cushings (as stated above), food or environmental allergies, hypothyroidism, etc are all on the table at this point. Luckily all are treatable. Good luck!

I appreciate everyone’s responses.

I am not familiar with Cushing and am wondering how we’d go about testing for it? Environmental allergies is another thing that’s a possibility that we have though of. I guess we can compare the ingredients in the food he’s eating now and the food before and see if it’s that. I would imagine it’s more of his outside environment, if it’s allergies
