Liver information

Liver information

This is extremely important to understand that the liver is a reactive organ.  There are times when liver values are higher than normal, but this can be normal ESPECIALLY IN A PUPPY.   Read the above article and don't automatically sign up for many, many tests just because one of the values is high.  Worm medication, vaccines, bacterial or viral infections and even eating something the puppy shouldn't  be eating,  can send liver enzymes up.  I check to make sure that the puppy livers are working properly before they leave here so please do not spend lots of money on liver tests or, heaven forbid, biopsies as has happened in several cases.
