  The Bile Acid test does not definately mean a livershunt.  It only indicates some sort of problem concerning the liver.  To definately know if it is a shunt, further testing is needed.  Was your pup fasted for 12 hours?  Also, does the breeder you purchased your pup from have any kind of health guarntee?  I have been through the livershunt surgery with my Misty, but her's was not discovered until she was almost 2.  |
