Also, about urine tests: Bilirubin is very unstable if the sample is exposed to light and air.
* This part: "A study was also done to test whether dogs fed a high-protein diet would have microalbuminuria (albumin in the urine, which can be an early sign of kidney disease), and the results were negative; a high-protein diet does not appear to cause microalbuminuria" has come up with slightly different results in other studies.
Also, about slight elevation of bilirubin in urine (in dogs only; bilirubin is apparently completely unexpected at even trace levels in all other domesticated species): "Dogs have a low renal threshold for bilirubin, therefore highly concentrated urine samples from this species may have a trace to 1+ reaction. This may be clinically insignificant." from http://ahdc.vet.cornell.edu/clinpath/modules/ua-rout/bilistix.htm
