Love Yorkie with liver shunt!

My sister gave me a Yorkie Terrier. He's now 8 months old. Her vet in Kentucky said all the blood test and symptoms led her to believe he has liver shunt. He takes a 1\2 pill and liquid med every day at 8am and 8pm. He gets water to drink and special dog food from the vet. He gets nothing else & it breaks my heart! Is there any organizations that help with cost of xray or surgery if he's lucky and surgery will fix this problem? I'm on disability and can't afford all these expensive xrays or possible surgery. Also wanted to know if they can remove liver shunt can he then have treats, milkbones or something other then water and that special food?
