Taz
My doggie is OK. I will spare you what taking a geriatric dog to the vet costs you when they run tests. But the good news, he does not have cancer!! they did xrays the lump is not a tumor. It is simply a swollen joint. When dogs get older just like people especially when they have arthritis joints can get enlarged. It was such an immediate swelling that didn't go down though I really worried. I am glad I went in though. I heart our vet :) He is a wonderful guy and a terrific vet. He also preformed a glaucome test on Taz. We have had some issues with his eyes. They get red and bulgy etc and he is losing his sight. The news there is.... he has "young eyes" no signs of glaucoma at all!! The chest xray and bone xray were clear. He now has some extra pain meds to help (we hope) and we are home and happy!
