I know this is way off subject but you said he has a livershunt? Did they do a Bile Acid test on him? You dont want to mess around with this if he does have it. Livershunt needs to be surgically repaired. Im happy to hear hes recovering from this injury. Im just concerned about this livershunt. Please do some research on it http://tsfannymaelivershuntfund.home...com/index.html

Livershunt kills if not surgically corrected.

Im not a vet but did your vet mention something about Atlantoaxial Instabilty? This can happen from extreme trauma to the neck.
