Anyway on Friday I gave her some hamburger 96 % lean and she has been sick ever since , now that there is no food in her belly she is drinking lots but throwing it right back up. I had to have her hydrated at Vets about 4 weeks ago and am waiting now to call to get her in today again, plus they check her liver each time. This is so sad I feel heartbroken. We have her 3 daughters as well. They are all 11 Anyway just wondering if anyone has an thoughts on this or ideas if you are or have dealt with this.....
I hope you were able to get her into the vet this morning! There are several companies that make special foods for dogs with liver disease--hopefully you vet will be able to recommend others that you can try, and others on Yorkietalk will provide additional recommendations of liver-friendly foods (no more hamburger, though!). That's why I am "bumping" this post...
