I found out when my Pug puppy was 2 months old that she had a liver Shunt..Ofcorse I couldnt risk the surgery..shes on medicine and special food and she is now 2 1/2 years old..She has her good days and her bad ones..she is VERY small(still looks like a pup) and VERY VERY thin..that is normal for dogs with this problem..I know she wont have a full healthy life but all I can do is love her for each and every day I have her..im just greatful Ive had her this long..the way the vet talked she was gonna die with in a few months. When I first found out she had a liver shunt i called Pug rescue to see if i could find out any more information on this..He told me that they just spent well over $3000.00 for the surgery for a pug and she passed 3 days later! That made up my mind right then and there not to get the surgery.This is a terrible disorder and heart breaking to make decisions on how to treat this. But I feel I did the right thing.
