Has anyone ever experienced or dealt with a dog that has a Liver Shunt? I have a litter of rescue puppies and one is starting to give red flags and the vet mentioned Liver shunt. When she was born she was the second smallest and was not breathing for awhile. We finally got her breathing and she did fine. Within the first couple weeks the runt out grew her and she became the smallest. Puppies are now 8 weeks old and her siblings are now double her size. Her face looks different from her siblings and her tongue always hangs out. Although she acts like a normal playful puppy. She's breaking my heart. She's been a fighter so far so I'm hoping she pulls thru!

Here's some pics of her. She's been named Bane. When she finishes her deworming we are going to start running tests.

I don't have any experience with liver shunts, hopefully someone else can give you some feedback, but she is adorable and I'm sending her love and light that she pulls through ok!
