| Need a Little prayer for Bogie Monday evening Bogie was sitting on my lap and I was petting him. I felt a hard knot on his spine which really freaked me out. He wasn't showing any signs of pain when I rubbed on it and has been playing normally and eating fine. My DIL looked at it for me this morning, as she is a vet tech for my vet. She didn't want to scare me but recommended he be seen today. My vet was really concerned because of the location of the knot so they did an x-ray, which showed nothing. (which they said was a good thing) Long story short...it was an abscess which he feels was caused from a reaction to a depo shot Bogie had a couple of months ago for some seasonal allergies. He is on clavamox for the infection and rimadyl to hopefully shrink it. He told me that I got him in quickly as the abscess wasn't really big yet. If I had let it go longer it could have grown and would have had to be surgically removed. If the meds don't clear it up he may have to still have it surgically removed so please pray for my little guy. I pray that the medication works. I am so thankful that I check my two from head to toe on a regular basis or I might not have noticed the knot before it got a lot larger. Right now it is about the size of the tip of my thumb.

| Oh my Michelle...poor Bogie. I know you were scared to death about your lil boy ...I pray that the meds work and Bogie has a quick recovery. Seems like a lot of furbabies are having problems lately. The girls send puppy kisses to Bogie |

| You are a such a good in tune momma to Bogie and Jada. Glad that you got him right into the vet and he is hopefully on his way to a full recovery with the antibiotic.

| Sending prayers for Bogie and sending out hug's to you. I hope the medication does the trick and that he won't have to have it removed. I'm like you, I check mine from head to tail ever day. I know my girl's must think, sheez Mom what gives. LOL But I have found many things that way.
