He took a biopsy and he's sending it out. He has to go back next Sunday for surgery to remove it. (Our vet is Jewish and is open on Sunday instead of Saturday). I am so scared. Kenny told him how we lost Bandit and how we just can't go through this again. He said not to panic, and not to worry. He also said that 9 out of 10 times these things are benign. 9 out of 10....all I can think about is that someone has to be that 1. I'm trying to remain calm, but it isn't working. I CAN NOT lose him. I just can't. Please say a prayer for our baby.
| BTW we have a dog named Tucker who has LOTS of those benign tumors! How old is your Tucker? These are typically fatty BENIGN tumors commonly occuring around the head and neck. You don't even need to remove them! Chances are VERY good that's what your Tucker has. Listen to your vet! :thumbup: |
