Yup. I'd say hundreds of Yorkies on YT have elevated liver enzymes and/or high bile acids. A bile acids test (another blood test) is needed even if the enzymes come back to normal range. Liver shunt is extremely common in Yorkies, and it has to be ruled out. A blood panel alone can only be an indication that something might be wrong. The bile acids test is more specific to actual liver function.
