Oh honey, I am so sorry his BAT was high. Listen, he does have some sort of liver issue, whether it be a Liver Shunt or MVD - but there are lots of us, including myself with a definite MVD dog and another that may have a mild case of MVD, going though what you are right now. WE ARE HERE FOR YOU. Please talk to us and ask us anything you'd like.....
We want you to know that whether it be LS or MVD, that this is NOT a death sentence for him, ok? You have caught this early and with the proper treatment, possibly surgery, proper supplements and diet that he can live a happy long life, I PROMISE YOU THAT.
...I am begging you to please DO NOT return him to that horrid seller/breeder, I am sorry to say but they don't care and they will either PTS or let him go untreated and suffer until he dies, so please do what you can for him, check into the Puppy Lemon Laws in your State and if you possibly can not care for him, please surrender him to a reputable Yorkie Rescue (they are listed in the Rescue Area Forum) and they will do what is neccessary to make him better and place him the proper home.
Please keep us posted, we will be waiting anxiously to hear more from you and your baby.
