Thank you so much for your advice.I was told about the radiation possibility.I looked into the procedure,but unfortunatly I do not have the financial ability to do that for him.The vet did not tell me about surgical removal of the thyroid gland. Iwill absolutly look into this(with a different vet).
There are veterinary schools in Georgia(that is where the radiation therapy is done).I will look into any other options they may have.Thank you all for your concern and advice.BuddyBear and katslady
