Welcome to YT. I don't have a furbaby with Liver Shunt myself, but I know so many people on the forum do and I'm sure they will offer you lots of advice and support. Just from reading other's threads- it seems a low-protein diet is recommended and a lot of people go to the University of Tennesse to have the surgery I think. Do you notice that your puppy's symptoms are related to when she eats or eating something high in protein? Has your vet done a bile acid test? There are so many knowledgeable members here- I know they will help you out. I think everyone here will welcome you whether your baby is a Yorkie or not. I'm so sorry your baby has been sick and that you have been so worried. I know how scary it is to have our little ones not doing well and not knowing exactly what is wrong or how to get them better. I will have you both in my thoughts and prayers.
