Not strange. I knew Yorkies get liver shunt and decided to check, just in case he did, and sure enough he does. Dr. said she's pretty sure there's a big shunt on the ultrasound. My only concern, except for the money, is that they think the surgery will help but won't cure him totally, he'll still need diet and medicine. This breeder keeps saying same thing over and over: "bile acid of 50 is inconclusive. You have to retest bat later and follow up with protein c if still high, then go to scintigraphy because ultrasound isn't good enough. You need to get a second opinion. Sell me back the puppy and I'll get it all done myself. Why did you get those lepto vaccines. You're not supposed to vaccinate Yorkies for lepto, yak yak yak." I hate that woman.
