| Carlo most likely has Mast Cell Cancer While the results are not back, the Surgeon advised us today to set up an appointment with an Internal Medicine Vet at the Hospital to talk Chemo Options. He said he is 99% sure it is cancer, Mast Cell, and we need to discuss options. This has us pretty bumed out now, especially as Carlo is really starting to recover from the surgery. He did not say this before. He said chances are if we do nothing the cancer will return. We will make an appointment to discuss options and have his staples removed at the same time. I will not be posting for a while, and I do appreciate all of the good wishes. He is much better. We will do what is good for Carlo. |

| I'm sorry Steve, I had prayed for better news on Carlo. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Marge, Maxine and Carlo during this difficult time. I'm certain you will do what is best for him. Sending the big guy another great big hug.

| I'm so sorry to hear this! I will be praying and hoping that once you go to your appointment, things will look much more positive than they do right now. Hugs to you, your wife, and Carlos!

| I'm so sorry to hear this sad news. Just a thought... several people on my raw feeding site seem to have had a lot of success treating or slowing the progression of dogs with a raw diet. Thought it might be worth it to mention it to you as an option for you to research.... |

| I will continue to keep Carlo, you, Marge and Maxine in my prayers. I will pray for the doctors to come up with a treatment plan that will bring Carlo more good quality time to spend with his family. Hugs to you all.

| Well, that stinks. I don't quite understand this surgeon's timing, but then again, there's a whole lot I don't understand. I do get that Carlo is a very lucky guy to have you to look out for his best interest. I'm sure rooting for your very fine, strong pooch.
