If you do a search for 'liver shunt' on this forum; you will find many dogs with liver problems.
Liver shunt does not necessarily mean a death sentence. As with many illnesses - it can run the spectrum from mild to severe. Many of us on here have yorkies with some type of liver issue.
Sometimes surgery is required; sometimes just medication and a diet change. The testing will hopefully guide you in the right direction.
Please let us know how things are going. Will keep you and Baby Chan in my thoughts and prayers.
