KimbersMommy-
The reason I suggested what I've said is because I've seen (on more occassions than my stomach cares to know about) little ones go in for surgery only to turn up a misdiagnosis.
If she isn't showing other symptoms, while it doesn't mean she doesn't have a liver shunt, it also could mean she has something else wrong.

Personally, not just because of her size, but I'd just have another vet at a different facility concur her condition before surgery came into play. There might be alternatives and again, there might not be anything really wrong w/ her liver either.

My thoughts are w/ you though and please keep us posted!
