I do value your opinion. I’m kinda thinking you are spot on about the liver shunt but I personally have not experienced it in a dog. I just think about how he has always been really weird and picky with food. What happens if it is liver shunt? |
It may be IBD or some other GI thing. That is why I asked about the GI panel...my vet does that with dogs that are presenting with GI symptoms.

I only suggested BAT's since that is a good thing to rule out in yorkies before pursuing something that will be more intensive and expensive to diagnose.
