My German Shepherd is Sick

Question
Hi,
I have a 8 year old german Shepard joji. Joji is the life of our home. Over the last few days, he has become very weak and refuses food. We took Joji to a vet in our city and the vet feels he has got jaundice. We life in a small town and the vet has not conducted any blood tests or anything. Joji, is now finding it difficult to walk as his hind legs seem to be very weak. What should i do? He is refusing food is is very lathargic. Please help.
Regards
Jai  

Answer
Hi Jai,  If your dog has jaundice, something is wrong with his liver and he needs help asap.  It will make him very lethargic and very ill.  Especially if the liver is failing.  You need to find another vet to run bloodwork to check the liver asap.  Hope this helps,
