I've read of vaccinations causing raised levels in a BAT but nothing that shows that to be the cause of a liver shunt. Most here would advise against giving the Lepto to a Yorkie but I don't think for that reason. Speaking as someone with no medical background, it just seems unlikely that a liver shunt could be accquired in that short amount of time. Sorry to hear about the little pup
