Glad you are doing it...because as Crystal said, it happens more than we realize.
Tibbe's may be just fine....just always good to know! And IF he did have something like MVD you would only need a diet change....and that would stop the issues IF it were that. And, if a shunt, easily fixed!
I'm pretty sure you're referring to me. I did not brush you off. I just followed my gut instinct and vet's experience in choosing not to do a BAT on Roxie. I have 43 years of experience owning Yorkies and have always done whatever is best for them health wise. I have one MVD dog and she gets the best care as all my dogs do. Money is never a consideration as I have insurance on all of them and money to cover any expenses they should need. I always appreciate people's input but I am always going to do what I and my vet of 23 years feel is the best for my dogs.

I hope Tibbe feels better soon.
