That's so interesting -- we have a black standard poodle that comes in to be groomed who had a similar tumor on his toe and it had to be amputated -- about a month after, I met someone with a black giant schnauzer who is missing several toes due to tumors on them. She told me the vet said dogs with black feet and toenails are more susceptible. I wonder if some cancers really are to do with pigment! I hope my black doggies never go through what you and Raven are going through. But I know you guys will get through it!
