Took dog (8yr) for nail cut and vet said dog jaundiced may be hepatitis ? Took blood test waiting for result.

 

Is this life threatening ? Or can be treated ? 

 

Any advice or info appreciated.

There are different kinds of Hep.  I am uncertain if Canine's experience Hep A,B,or,C.  

 

If it is like human Hep,   it can be managed many times and recovered from.     Or it could be fatal depending on a variety of factors like age,  overall health,  exposure risks...   Good luck with the pup,   certainly it will do better with a lot of love.
