Dr. Naaf also said that she may not be a surgery candidate. Up until 3 years of age she showed no signs what so ever. She was a very healthy spunky little dog until then. That was 18 months ago and the vet then wouldn't test for liver shunt, that is why after him and a holistic vet I went to the one that I am using now to test the bile acids. Everyone of them thought it was nero and not liver related. They were all surprised when she had elevated bile acids.

not surprised alot of vets do not know much about mvd and liver shunt. The other dog i posted about had no symptoms nothing and he was 4 and he ended up with bladder stones is how they found out he had a liver issue and had multiple shunts
