My dog may have bone cancer

[Daisy and Delilah]

{{{{{HUGS}}}}} I know it must be really hard to go through this. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

Our pups are so stoic. My RB Cody passed from cancer only about 1 week after being diagnosed. I had no clue either. No whimpering, no reaction, only on the last day. *Sigh*. It's so unfair.

If I were you, and I've thought about this often, I would opt for a three legged love-bucket, if it was an absolute cure. I know 3 leggers and they get along just fine.

Hoping that there's a quick solution for BooBoo and that she reovers quickly. Good Luck and lots of huigs.

I'm sorry to hear about your Boo and hope for a good diagnosis.

We recently found out our 7 year old lab mix has cancer in her leg, although it is in the tissue, not the bone. She had one surgery early November, when the diagnosis was made, and will have a second on January 9th to remove all excess tissue in the area to try to prevent a reoccurance, or spread of the cancer. It is a scary thing to consider, but I too wonder if someday amputation may be a decision we have to consider. Cincy also always appears perfectly healthy and happy, full of energy and always playing hard with the other dogs.

Thoughts and prayers for a good outcome for Boo Boo

At http://handicappedpet.net/helppets/index.php on the amputee bb there are a number of bone cancer survivors, with chemo and without. Good luck!

I'm sorry your pup is not well. Many prayers that it can be treated.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. I hope it's not cancer.

I lost my Toby last summer to bone cancer.

Thank you for the well wishes. I can't stop crying. I'm a basketcase right now.

Next week I am taking her to get chest x-rays to see if the cancer has spread to her lungs. I hope not!! From there I will determine what is the next step. I've been researching vet oncology centers to see which place is a better fit. I wish some of these places were a little closer. Oh well. I guess me and my BooBoo will be going for a long drive.

This evening I will be staying home with my fur baby spoiling her rotten with treats and love.
