I just read it and feel so sad for the loss of this pup. I have to agree with her though. Soooo many people here always say NOT to buy a puppy without it being tested for LiverShunt. It is very stressful on a puppy being so small and all. I think the best that we can do is have the parents tested .Also talk to the new owners about getting them tested at age 6 months. I can't even imagine how sick to her stomach and shock this turned out to be

Genie,Cookie,Lola & Angel.
