Read up about the Lemon Law and once you get the Bile Acid Test results back, you get them to her ASAP along with the Lemon Law information. You might have to send them certified mail to have proof that she received them.

Again, liver issues are not the end of the world, ok? I have 2 and so far I have Bile Acid tested them both 3x each. My girl has higher #s and we did other blood work (approx. $150) for them to see if 'other' things were off that would conclude liver issues. We also did an ultra sound ($350) - I don't really recommend that though, b/c even though her liver was normal shape and normal size and NO shunt was seen, it doesn't mean there is not a shunt.

Your baby is still young, so I am assuming he hasn't been neutered yet. So that means, if his Bile Acid Tests are high, you can speak with your Vet about taking a Liver Biopsy at the same time they do his neuter, which would also be less expensive.

Anyway, I am just trying to help you to help him

BUT - No matter what - Go after his breeder for $ - It's the LAW!!!

And PLEASE DON'T GIVE HIM BACK

I will be here for you if you have any questions or need help understanding anything, ok?

Thank you so much for all your help I needed some directions and I got it! Thanks I will keep you all posted. It's amazing that I found people that share the same kind of love for yorkies because some people that I have talk to tell me I'm crazy to even think about helping my puppy out, cause of how expensive it could get. So I thought maybe I was crazy! and was questioning myself, my heart really wants to help him and keep him with us.
