He then started to do what appeared to be trying to get something off his head and ive read that with the liver shunt they press their heads against thing so im really freaking out right now. im talking him to his vet tomorrow morning but in the meantime i am absolutely going crazy. ive been watching him like a hawk to see if he has another episode. has anyone had a yorkie with a liver shunt? i know there is a surgery that can be done...im just so scared he is going to die and it will be all my fault for getting him from his horrible breeder. if it is a liver shunt is that considered genetic? what will i do if i lose him? im so scared.

Please don't worry, or drive yourself crazy with the worse of your thought's. You will upset him, and make yourself nuts...Just wait, until the Vets... I hope he will be just fine!
