Acidosis means that your dog's blood pH has dropped from its normal level, and an injection of saline is required to reverse the condition. B. Acidosis means that your dog's blood pH has increased from its normal level, and an injection of saline is required to reverse the condition. C. Acidosis means that your dog's blood pH has decreased from its normal level, and an injection of buffering solution is required to reverse the condition. D.
