OREO has to have some surgery tomorrow!
He has a cyst on his left upper eyelid that got really big and I was able to get a bunch of thick yellowish-green pus out of yesterday :eek: , and a lesion on his left lower eyelid that is kind of bloody :( .
While he's under the anesthesia for those two items to be removed, the Vet. is going to remove a lipoma (fat tumor) from his underside, and a large skin-tag-lesion-like growth from his left front leg "elbow" area. He's also going to get his teeth cleaned and his toe nails trimmed (OREO, not the Vet! :D ).
For those of you who don't know who Oreo is, he's our nine-year-old "Chocolate Beagle" (mother was a Chocolate Lab, father was a Beagle, so we call him our "Chocolate Beagle!") He's such a good boy, although sometimes "Goofy" or "Dufus" would be a more appropriate name for him! :D I sure hope he does OK with the surgery! He can't have anything to eat or drink after midnight tonight, and he's going to think we're ABOOSING him! :eek: :( Poor guy!
I'll try to take "before" and "after" pictures to post tomorrow. Please pray that all goes well. He should be able to come home tomorrow afternoon......
Thanks.
