Another name.... Is this the "liver shunt"?
Thank god i do not know much about it and i am so very sorry to hear that you found it out about your baby....
I was reading it here a few times about this condition, there is a 3 letter abreviation to it i can not remember , but i read many posts about this condition right here.
I also read something else on a pet shop, an article saying how common it is to the yorkies to have that. As far as i understand it can be more severe or not so severe, and it does not mean it is fatal at all... it can be managed with diet... the surgery may not be an option for every diagnosed dog...
Since i read about it and found that it can show no simptoms for years i keep my eyes open on it...
I remember reading a long post of someone who knows a lot about it... Mvd?MDV??? something like this.... reaserch on other threads and you will find it.... there are long discussions on it....
Good luck with your yorkie !!!!
