Have you requested a Protein C test? Are you following the other threads here dealing with liver disease, to get an understanding that with liver issues in a puppy it is more important to select the proper sources of protein than just to restrict the amount of protein. Yorkieluv has posted great info about this.

I'm getting the feeling that many Vets aren't up to date on the latest and best diagnosis & treatment for liver disease in dogs. With the valuable information we are getting here, we can help provide new information to our vets and get a better outcome for our pets.
When I mentioned the protein C test, he had no recollection of this then started on a different subject. Honestly, I was not happy with today's visit. I just want to do what is best for my Lilly. He was really just stressing medical mgment and retest in 3-4 months. I just want to know NOW what it is- I know that is not possible to happen! The closest internist is 3 hours away, and thought I could avoid if he would repeat the test in a month. I just don't know what to do.
