Default Liver problems

Sorry to hear about your puppy. The blood test you need to have is bile acid. It's a 12 hour fasting and they draw bllod then you feed your puppy and they do another blood draw in 2 hours. This will tell If it's a liver problem. If the results are abnormal then the next step is a CT Scan to see if it's liver shunt. My little girl Maggie just had her liver shunt conformed and is going for surgery on Friday. Good luck and if you have any questions I'm here for you both.
