Dogs and cancer
Discussion
I have lost two of my bulldogs in the last year to cancer. Last Tuesday my 8 year old girl Rosie also a bulldog went to the vets as i new their was something up. i left her and I had a call from the vets to say she had a massive tumor. I was seeing to my sheep in the middle of a field at the time. I just broke down at the news. I asked the vet for some time to gather my thoughts and emotions.
I called back and the vet said he had taken it out already to my surprise. I went straight to the vets and he brought the tumor out and it was HUGE. It weighed 11 pounds 8 ounces. Shes back home now with her spleen removed and shes acting as if nothing has happened. Shes always done her own thing and always new she was a tough character but i am even surprised at how well she is coping after such a big operation. Vets and nurses said they are so surprised with how she has coped.
I will find out in a week if the cancer is curable or not.
The whole point of this post is to encourage people to get their pets scanned every 6 months or yearly even.
