Hi. Sorry your little girl is having a rough start. I just wanted to chime in on the liver disease aspect. I have a yorkie, Zeus, who is 7 years old. He was diagnosed with MVD, an inoperable form of liver disease when he was 10 mos. old. He is leading a very happy and "healthy" life with the proper diet and supplements. I'm sorry your breeder gave you such a negative, definitive, and inaccurate response. I would have the Bile Acid Test run and go from there. Liver Shunt surgery has evolved and has very good success rate. Good Luck!!! Juliet

That is where I got Lulu from. I didn;t know they changed thier name. I haven't had any problems with them before.

Hum....

Did you think that she may have had a vaccine reaction? Too much of a coincidence not to think so... she got sick after the shot...

Also, she may have kennel cough? Very common and has to do with stress... puppies stress out so easy and when they do they get a cold, diarreia... the hypoglicemia that can become a very serious thing...

I am trying to cheer you up a bit, a reaction to the shot is not the best news but it is also not as bad as anything you are thinking it is...

I am not familiar with Liver shunts conditions, but i am learning a lot from the testimonies here !!!!

Good luck !!!

I am sooo sorry to hear that you're baby is sick. Hopefully she'll get better soon.

I also had a bad experience with Puppy Boutique AKA Puppy Petite.

My puppy died two weeks after I purchased him for $1600 and Puppy Petite refused to give me a new puppy or a full refund for the purchase price. After doing a bit more research; I found the source of where my puppy really came from. The paperwork supplied with the contract, listed Sandra Parson as the breeder. I took the information from the paperwork and had it further investigated. As it turns out, the breeder is not local, she's located in IOWA. Therefore, my puppy had to travel 1200+ miles from the 'breeder' to Puppy Boutique when he was only 8 weeks of age (he as 8 weeks when I bought him, there's actually no way of knowing when he arrived at Puppy Boutique).
