Hello Everyone,
Just joined today after getting some difficult news. We have 3 yorkies. Pepe: 6 years old, Snickers: 5 years old and Emme, 1 1/2 years old. We just found out 3 days ago Pepe may have Protien Losing Enteropathy. Quite dis-heartening news. They've run all the tests, even an ultra-sound. Tomorrow he gets an endoscopy (sp). I guess it's the dog version of a colonoscopy. Poor little guy. I guess it's an un-curable disease, but treatable. What makes it the toughest is he was our first. We're going to do what we can for as long as we can......can anyone offer any information? Sure would like to know as much as we can and what to expect. Thanks in advance!
