His regular doc this morning said he looks great. He is one strong old guy!

Just like his owner!

Great news! Keep up the good work Carlo. You definitely have a very big support group behind you. All good prayers going your way.

Yaaay Carlo! Glad to get the good report from your Dad!

I just gave the old guy his CEENU chemo pill. He got it in a double pill pocket, and have to make sure he swollows it...he did. He will show some tiredness in a few days, and bounce back. In 3 weeks will take him in for all the scans and exams. Hope the news continues to be good.

My daughters Toy Poodle just started Chemo for Lymphoma, and one of her birds died a few days ago. She is not having a good week at all.

Rest up Carlo! We are praying for good results.

Your daughter is really having a tough week. Sorry to hear about her poodle and her bird. Hoping her poodle tolerates the chemo and responds well to it. As you know all too well, it is not easy to watch them go through this.

Steve, just checking in to see how your daughter and her poodle is doing. I hope everything will be good in the future. Glad that Carlo is doing so well!

Her Poodle has had 2 chemo treatments so far, and gets another this Thursday. So far, the lumps are shrinking, and the Specialist believes he can knock it all out. She is tolerating it pretty well, but the prednisone is bothering her.

Carlo is hanfing tough. Been almost a week since he got his CEENU chemo pill. He is a bit quiet, and slower, but I keep forgetting that he is an old guy for the breed. A shame they have to get old and sick.

Great news about your daughter's pupster!!

The Vet called, (Not his regular Vet who is on vacation, but another one there) . Said his White Blood Cell Count from the CBC yesterday came back at 2000, and it has always been around 5500 a week after the pill. . She called the specialist who said to put him on Clavamox for 7 days, and another blood test next week. He has really slowed down after his last CEENU chemo pill, where as before he bounced back fast or it had no effect. I just ran over to the Animal Hospital and gave him the first does. The poor guy looks so old now.....
