The little Yorkie, Lilo Kahlua Bear, who you may have seen here on YT on occasion, recently passed away. When admitted to the hospital she was very anemic. At first they thought she was anemic because of possible bone chips caught in the intestines. Sadly, she also had a serious protein deficiency. So very, very sad. You can't be too careful with these furry family members. |
I know I kept up with Lelo's progress and I was broken hearted and hurt so much for her. Now what would cause a serious protein deficiency?
