Pinky

My dog Pinky has a growth on his back leg. It just kinda popped up last Wednesday. It was very large and oozing pus. My hubby took him to the vet on Friday and the vet thinks it might be cancer. It was very swollen and inflamed so we have been treating it with medicine. He goes back to the vet on Wednesday. If all the swelling has gone down we will have more information then. We are very sad. He is so special to us! We have had him for almost 9 years and he is a major part of our family. Hopefully everything will be ok!

Dog Surgery

My dog had surgery yesterday. He had scratched his ear and busted a couple of blood vessels on his ear flap which resulted in a rather large pocket of blood and stuff. He went to the vet and got a drainage tube put in and micro-chipped. He is doing somewhat better. Took quite a long time for the pain meds to wear off though. They also cut his nails while he was under. We do not cut his nails because it is very painful for him. So his ear is hurting, his nails, and his back from the chip. Hopefully he will be back to normal soon.
