When she recovers, have your vet do a bile acids test to make sure she doesn't have a liver shunt. I'm concerned since you said she hasn't gained weight in a month. Dogs with shunts can have bad reactions to vaccinations. Yorkies are more prone to shunts than any other breed, so they should all be screened with bile acids tests after 20 weeks old.



I am keeping my fingers crossed for her recovery. I will do this test, for sure. Thank you for the great advice.
