Question how young is too young to test for liver shunt??

I am having some issues with my 13 week old 18 ounce puppy. He is not eating enough or drinking enough and is losing weight, and apparently he is having some other liver shunt symptoms. Everyone is saying that I should go take him to test his bile acid asap, like tomorrow. I was wondering if he was too tiny to do this test? What is the smallest youve ever tested a pup for liver shunt and how did they take it? What is your suggestion? My guy has had one bad hypo attack in the week ive had him where i had to rush him to the vet, fyi. This is the thread if you want to catch up: puppy not eating or drinking enough

Please let me know your opinions
