She said if they could get her pup to live a little while longer, that's what she wanted. I've read where a lot of rescues have dogs with liver shunt and send them to certain vets with experience. You may want to call them for recommendations. God bless you, I can't imagine the pain of what you or others have to go thru, so my heart goes out to you.
Yorkshire Terrier National Rescue (YTNR) raised fund to offer a grant to Dr. Tobias on researching Liver Shunt. You can get to the site by www.ytnr.com or go directly to www.livershunt.com to see the information and comments by Dr. Tobias. If you review the doctors/research you will also see other universities that are doing more with Liver Shunt. On the site you will see that Dr. Tobias offers surgery for these little ones.
