Figo.....

Is poorly, after extensive tests for everything under the sun, today he had a ultrasound, he has an enlarged liver and blood in his bladder....waiting for test results to come back next week to see where we go from here.

Not up on liver problems, I guess it can be infection ( shown up on blood work) to more serious issues.

Anyone with experience on this, I will appreciate any input.

Oh, no! Poor guy. Enlarged liver and blood in his bladder... hopefully it's just infection. This type of thing happened to someone else's dog and the dog had been fed rat poison The liver damage turned out to be permanent and though the dog recovered, it affected his life span. Other than that I really have no idea. Hopefully you have ruled out poison. I wish you luck, very sorry about this.

I have done a google there is a lot of information and some forums with people with information. Seems it could be something simple to something not so simple.

Firstly thanks all for your thoughts.

No his breeder is in the dark about it too.

depending on results it can be controlled by medication and diet......well know more next week.
