She had another episode this morning, not the worst by far but enough to worry me. She had eaten a big lunch yesterday but then wouldn't eat dinner. I've been giving her Nutri-Cal twice a day, morning and night.
Anyone have experience with this? How long can we expect to battle this? She is 14 weeks today.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions and sharing. |
My pup had the same kind of episodes and was diagnosed with a liver shunt at about 14 to 15 weeeks of age. He just had surgery to correct the liver shunt. He never did enjoy eating. I would suggest to you to have the vet do a bile acid test specifically.
