Welcome to YT - I'm just so sorry that is under sad circumstances. But there are really great surgeons and vet schools that do an awesome job with Liver Shunt surgeries. It is very important to have the experts diagnose and operate - a general vet is just NOT the ticket here.

Univ of tennessee is a great vet school. Dr Karen Tobias will even do phone consults.

We had another person here recently - she is from Ontario Canada - she went there about 1000 miles from us - to get the surgery - all is well with her pup now.

If you do a search on here for Liver Shunt - you will find numerous threads. Many contain pertinent info on diagnosing and treating LS.

Also yahoo has a liver shunt support group.

Best of luck
