We had to make a call to the vet today...

[cocker_luva]

My cocker Jesse has a big lump on her belly. im worried it might be a tumor or cancer or something! my mom thinks it might be a hernia because she is having alot of accidents in the house (pee, poop, puke) its not pretty. at first i thought it was a bladder infection with the bladder problems, but then now Jesse is puking and has uncontrollable shaking spells. i am soo worried!!! she has a vet appointment in 30 minutes so i have to go. its a good thing that the vet doesnt make her nervous! that helps a little.

[joycenalex]

and what did the vet say?

[Logan]

Let us know what you found out at the vet. I do hope that Jesse will be just fine.

I'm so anxious, wondering how Jesse did. Please check in when you can...all paws crossed for this precious, precious, pup. Sandra

Hope it's nothing serious!

[cocker_luva]

well the vet doesnt know whats wrong yet, but he gave us some antiboitic to help kill some bacteria in her intestines. also the lump on her belly is just a fat lump! she now has three of 'em. also the vet told us that she probably shakes because all the poop accidents (that happen regularly) are hurting her. *i hope the pills work so shes not in pain anymore*

well ill keep everyone posted on what happens.
**crosses fingers that progress occurs**

Hope Jesse gets better quick. How's Jesse feeling today? Better, I hope.

[cocker_luva]

well she always looks fine, then she has an accident, and is like "who did that?" then she will go off to play. unless she starts shakin then she looks at you for help. (ill just lay her down and stroke her, say soft things to calm her down) it seems to work pretty well.

Oh my gosh! I have the same problem with my doxie. Okay, he's a teesy weensy bit overweight ( okay, I'm exaggerating). He has this lump on his belly and we thought it was a cancer tumor also but it turned out it was just a fat deposit!!! I'm so happy it's something we can now both laugh over!

Hope Jesse's doing better. I was so relieved to read that it was a fatty tumor and nothing more serious!

PUPGIRL, re-post your transport request thread in "Dogs Rescue" so more will see it!

[stacwase]

Jake has fatty tumors, too. We had biopsies, but they're OK. They're pretty common in people, too.
