[love2yorkies]

I have two yorkies Kirby is 10(black/tan) and Cricket is 6(silver), Cricket was just diagnosed with PLN just a few weeks ago and we have been going through quite alot with her. I was told the PLN stands for Protien Losing Nathroposis, she has to much protien in her Urine and not enough in her blood. She is taking 6 medicines and also on a special dog food. we are hoping in a few weeks she will be able to come off most of the medicine, but we do know she will have to take one of them for the rest of her life however long that might be. We were told by the vets she could live six months or a couple of years just depending on how strict we were with the food and medicine. As of 09/02/08 she is now only taking two medicine Enacrad and Liquid baby Asprin, she is eating Roayl Canine LP. I was wondering if there was anyone on this forum that has or has had a yorkies or any dog with this problem? Thanks for any feedback
