The hepatic portal system is the system of veins comprising the hepatic portal vein and its tributaries. The liver consumes about 20% of total body oxygen when at rest, so the total liver blood flow is quite high. Blood flow to the liver is unique in that it receives both oxygenated and partially deoxygenated blood.
Question though if anybody can help. I have a mini Aussie puppy that's just over 16 weeks and is about 17 1/2 lbs.. At 11 weeks when I got her she was only 10 lbs.. Looking at your growth stats for indie, mine was just slightly over indie at 11 weeks but has gained much more weight compared to indie. I am worried she is growing to fast.

Bridget tips the scales at 27 pounds (12.3 kilos). While I occasionally see a small male Scottie downtown, he looks kind of scrawny to me.
