When an albumin level is low, it might mean a disease of the kidney. It may also mean a disease of the liver like hepatitis.
Egg whites are high in albumin. If your dog has a decreased albumin level, it is generally safe to give him/her one egg white per day. Always remember to consult with your veteriarian first!
low
The normal level of albumin in blood serum is 35-50 g/L (or 3,5-5,0 g/100 mL).
It depends on the individual puppy. Rottweilers and German Shepherds have some similar temperament characteristics, but also some strong differences. If you're thinking of getting one of the two, the German Shepherd will probably need more stimulation, while the Rottie will be calmer and more level.

Yes...and no. There are purebred, registered German Shepherds who happen to be white. However, under the AKC they are disqualified for showing in the breed ring. This led to a movement to create a separate breed called the White Shepherd (as opposed to the white German Shepherd) under the UKC (United Kennel Club). There was a period of time when a registered white German Shepherd could compete under either breed, but I believe they are now considered two separate breeds. Owners of white German Shepherds had to choose which they wanted their dog to be. Part of the reason for this split is not just about color. On average, White Shepherds have more of a traditional look than modern AKC show German Shepherds. White Shepherds have level backs and are not over angulated, going back to what the German Shepherd was in the 60's and 70's.
Low albumin level is a strong predictor of mortality and morbidity among dialysis patients.
Albumin is a protein that is produced by the liver. Hydration ultimately determines the production level of albumin. Low levels are commonly the result of liver or kidney disease.
