Hello We are just beside ourselves , it's been a roller coaster. Started Friday 12-21 We went from a health bouncing little 13 week old girl to a shaky weak little baby we have been to the vet 4 times He has been giving her shots to keep her sugar levels up and fluids shes on the up right now but still not herself. How is your little one doing now? I'm not real familiar with the breed but our vet is talking about her liver???

I have never posted on any chat group on the internet and to be honest I'm not sure if I'm doing this right but I am just so desperate to find help for our little puppy. I guess I' looking for some good news that there could be a reason for her being off balance and her head shaking besides her liver?

I guess there is a possibility that it could be something like hydrocephalus but it sounds like liver shunt or microvascular dysplasia. I'm sorry.:( What are her bile acid number? Does she tend to shake after meals?

I just recieved a PM, & This poor little girl did not make it. She had liver problems. :(

:( :(

How heartbreaking for this family.
