    Hi all. My sweet 2 year old went to the vet because she has been ill. The vet suspects fatty liver disease. I keep reading that vitamins (specifically biotin) are good in helping prevent this in the others and possibly keeping my girls current situation "in check" (as much as possible). What do...
