When we were feeding him the Hawaiian Delight baby food mixed with cottage cheese he looked like he was doing better but, when I switched to a protein based canned soft puppy food he looks terrible again. This would make sence if he has the liver shunt. We will know more in the morning. We just want to know what is wrong so we can treat his condition properly. Thank you so much for all of your support and advise. We greatly appreciate it!
I hope it's not liver shunt. but at least you would know what you are dealing with.

JMO But.....I would go back to the petstore and let them know and ask for a refund. AND HELL NO I'M NOT GIVING THE PUPPY BACK, WHY WOULD YOU WANT A SICK PUPPY BACK. And if you don't give me a refund I'm calling the Local TV station.
