He probably was heavier due to the ascites...I hope your baby will be okay. There are several vegetarian diets out there including Natural Balance Vegetarian, Avoderm Vegetarian, Petguard Organics Adult Dry Food, etc. These are all appropriate for healthy dogs, so even if your dog does not turn out to have liver disease, they are fine to feed on a continuous basis.
I homecook for my yorkie. Once you get the bloodwork results, you can contact a canine nutritionist to formulate a diet for your baby.
My yorkie is only 4 yrs old...He was born with his liver condition...
