Yesterday we was groomed and Mama found some blood on my right paw high up by by body. When she was cleaning it she found a large growth. Today I went to the vet and he shaved some of the hair around it off .He also took a scrape of it that he checked.
He found bad cells in it so now I need surgery on January 17 th and they will have to send the bad growth off after the surgery to have it checked.
Please pray that all will go well and keep me in your prayers.
It is so hard to keep me still.
I was pretty good during the day but made up for that later that night.
Mama sat with me in the grass for a while and later Papa yesterday so I could sniff some fresh air. When I was sitting with Papa and Levi in the front yard I wanted to go after a few squirrels can you believe that ? Mama took me back in she was too scared that I hurt my leg.
I can walk a few steps to go potty close by the house in he front yard or across the street. Mama carries me when there is a step.
I am already laying froggy style and my tail is wagging today again.
I gave Mama a bad night . She thought I would sleep next to her bed o n my bed but I tried climbing on a chest to get on the bed. Mama crated me after that. I guess I made her feel quilty so she thought maybe I will lay still on the bed . BOL That was a big mistake.
I kept moving could not lay still or go to sleep even with a pain pill.I was real hyper.
Mama took me downstairs to my crate at 1:00 AM .
She was so upset me moving on the bed and scared I hurt my leg or fall. So I spent the rest of the night in my crate.
One good thing I am no longer coughing and finally also had a good BM. Sure hope the next 6 months go by fast so I be able to walk and run on the beach again.
I get the stiches out in 2 weeks.
Have a wonderful day and go after the pesty squirrels for me will you.
We are back from the vet visit this afternoon and Dr. Hill gave me a good exam. The anti inflammatory medications are not helping much and I can't stay on that for the rest of my life. The ligament is completely torn so surgery is the best possible thing to do.
I will stay on the anti inflammation medication 2 x a day till the day of the surgery Oct.23.
Also the Co-sequin I will take every day. I want to be able to zoom and run again and after I am all healed I be able to do that.
This past January I had my right back leg surgery also for the same thing.
Not looking forward to it and I know Mama will worry about me.It takes 6 months to heal.
While their there was a lady who had to put her dog down she was crying. Her baby had cancer real bad. She told them she did not have the money and they are so nice at the vet the girl behind the desk told her not to worry about it you can pay us when you have it she told her. It was so sad.
