Rimadyl can be very scary. I'd be especially worried with a Yorkie puppy because of the high incidence of liver disease in the breed.
Did Davinci have a bile acids test yet? I would want to be absolutely certain his liver was 100% normal. According to Dr. Center, all Yorkie puppies should have a bile acids test by the time they are 6 months old. It can be routinely done with pre op bloodwork for the neuter, but he's too young for that.
If you are uncomfortable with Rimadyl, I'd discuss it with your vet. |
