| Tori - Possible Liver Shunt Some of you may have seen Tori in the Regional Forum where a YTer was looking for help.... I am happy to share with all of you that Tori is now a YHR pup. Bekabug is fostering her until we get to the bottom of her medical issues and then she will go to another foster home after that. She is close to UT and we felt that would be best for Tori...to be evaluated there. She has a link on the YHR page that leads to a page that Bekabug had put together for her. Beka found Tori in December and not long after Tori started having symptoms of a possible liver shunt. The website for Tori tells the whole story. Putting them both here so you can follow her; but I will update as I hear more and perhaps Bekabug will as well. She has had BATs done which were high..I don't have the exact numbers here. She is on lactulose and a low protein diet which has kept her asymptomatic. Adoptable Pups Tori the Yorkie Many thanks to Yorkiemom1 for bringing this pup to my attention. And, thank you to Bekabug for loving Tori so much and seeing that she received the best. Oh....here is Tori's picture. Tori.jpg

| Thank you so much Linda, for the mountains you had to move, the "miracles" you pulled out of your hat, to get this wonderful little pup the help she needed. Bekabug was so distraught and sincerely out of options for help for this pup she had so graciously taken in, trying to help. It was all so overwhelming, getting more complicated and confusing day by day, an you jumped in and started unraveling all the mess and got to the heart of the problem, and the baby is now getting the care she needs! Thank you! And thanks to Bekabug for trying to help this baby in the first place! |

| Tori had bloodwork, and ultrasound and a scintigraphy which did indicate a shunt as we had suspected. Her surgery will be tomorrow. Prayers for her please....

| Thanks all....I always feel terrible for these poor babies. They don't know what is going on and so many of them must go through so much.

| It is heartbreaking, but comforting to know they are getting the medical care they need thanks to you and Yorkie Haven Rescue.
