Do you trust your vet?
Honestly, something doesn't sound right.
They shouldn't have surgery for a shunt without a positive diagnosis.
What if it is MVD?
What tests have been done so far?
I'm sure you told me already but I can't remember now. So many people on YT are dealing with bile acid testing or liver shunt that it all kind of gets mixed up after awhile.
It still isn't clear if the pup is liver compromised? Since he the fecal contaminants then, followed with the medication Baytril, Flagyl, interceptor, the 2 vaccines with lepto and corona, in them with in 2 weeks apart. He weighs less then 3 lbs. Actually 2.4 lbs.

Right now he is a fussy eater and gets hypoglycemic if fasting more then 10 hours. He has to have nutrical inbetween 10-1 am or someone better feed him by 7-8 am. He won't eat royal canin or eukanuba. He will eat science diet AD and activia, and newborn milk.
