    Oh, no, Rutherford!

    I don't know a lot about fibrosarcomas...are they the ones that can appear at vaccination sites? Hopefully they are not systemic, and that removing this will prevent a return.

    I thought there was a food that worked on his type of crystals and stones...poor baby!

    Prayers that he gets all fixed up and all better soon!

    How are his spirits? His appetite?

    Goodness, Rutherford has had his share of problems. We'll be sure to pump up the prayer volume for this guy's surgery.
    Blessings,

    Poor Rutherford!! Is he on the Hills OXL diet? He sure has had so much to deal with in a short time. I hope the surgery to remove the sore will go smoothly and that it will not return. Prayers going out for Rutherford from B.C.!

    Prayers for Rutherford. Poor guy. I might make a suggestion that I follow with Dakky, post PU surgery. I give him the c/d wet twice a day, and add maybe a tablespoon of water to it. This makes it a little bit like a gravy and ups his water intake. Big deal with the PU guys.

    Good luck, Rutherford!

    Rutherford eats royal canin SO, but only the dry. I need to try to add the wet to his diet.

    I am actually researching this stuff.

    It may turn out to be just what he needs. I just want to make sure the herbs have ono serious side effects.

    Jen, I sure hope that you'll be able to find something to help him. Storm also had the PU surgery but he can still get crystals so I have to make sure that he eats plenty of wet food every day and I also add some water to it. So since he's been on Innova Evo he's done great plus he loves his food.
