The puppy was treated and the external shunt was fixed and the puppy has lived a healthy normal life with his new family.

To be honest I have stated over and over again the ytca should police their own, before they worry about the non ytca members. Because I know for a fact they are not all ethical!
I am so sorry you had to go through this. Liver shunt is devasting and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Knowing about what it does and knowing the experiences of it...and as I've stated over and over it's what one does within their breeding program when it happens that deems who is ethical and who is not. Just don't put all YTCA members in a catagory as unethical. One can only police their own breeding program.
