We have to have her liver counts done once a month to make sure she is doing ok. We will never know for sure what caused this to happen. But, she was fine until we gave her Trifexis. The Dr. told me if Piper was a human that she would be at St. Johns on a liver transplant list. I don't want to give you false hope. But, if there is any way you can afford to take her somewhere else she could still have a chance.


If you can, I highly recommend you get the opinion of a board certified internal medicine vet.

You can find one at:

American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine > Home

Good luck and welcome to YT. So sorry you are going through this with your pup.
