    Dasher: 2/27 Benign!

    Dasher has a questionable lump on his paw and he'll be staying at the vet's Thursday for a biopsy. I'm getting nervous because I don't want to leave him and also because the anesthesia, especially on older dogs. Here's his thread about the history of the lump.

    On a happier note, after we got back from the vet last week, I gave Dasher part of his Valentine cookie. Petco had a cookie decorating/photo with your dog party on the 9th. It was all free! We had to wait in line for forty minutes but it was worth it. Dasher got to meet lots of dogs. They had Kong peanut butter in icing bags and sprinkles for decorating your cookie. I tried to do a paw print in it but the sprinkles covered it up.


    May I eat it now, please?

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I know how you feel about leaving your boy, Val. I'm sure the vet will take great care of Dasher, knowing his history. I'm praying the biopsy show nothing serious..something that can be easily fixed so Dasher stays healthy.

    The cookie looked so good, you had me fooled that it was for Dasher! He sure has more patience than I would before digging in! Looks like he enjoyed your special Valentines gift!



    I've been Boooo'd!

    Awww, poor Dasher! I hope everything will turn out to be ok. I know how hard it is to leave your special dog at the vet.

    It looks like he had an awesome Valentine's Day though. What a yummy looking cookie!

    Val,
    You and Dasher are in my thoughts and I wish you both the best result on Thursday. Not wanting to leave him is so understandable and your day will be a long one for sure. Be strong - Dasher knows how much you love him and he'll be back with you in no time.

    Dasher's cookie looked scrumptious and he was so smiling as he munched on it Thanks Mom

    Thoughts and prayers for you and Dasher, Val. I hate it every time I have to leave one of my babies at the vets even if it is for only the day. Hope the bump is nothing to worry about.

    That cookie sure looked good! I think I might have ate it instead of giving it to the dog. Or at least make him let me share it!
