Sparky could use some PT prayers-UPDATE #17

Good News - no surgery!!!!

Mr Lumpy's lumps didn't go away with the Benadryl. so it was back to Dr Annie today. She did a fine needle aspiration and it's only fat, so since it's not very big and not interfering with anything, then she's just going to leave it alone. I always said that Sparky didn't have an ounce of fat on him, so guess I can't say that anymore! Sparky and I are both breathing a big sigh of relief tho with the good news.

Those PT prayers came thru again! Thanks!!!!!!!

And Sparky actually had fun at the vet today. Doc had three little 6 week old adoptable kittens running free in the waiting room, so he had fun sniffing and playing with them. He loves kitties! Of course you know who fell in love with them - especially the one that looked like Taz Zoee's Paizly - but I returned home with just the one dog that I left with.

So my boy is under my desk sleeping off his two traumas of the day. First it was a thunderstorm this morning (he's petrified of them), and then the needle! Guess I'll have to give him an extra treat when he wakes up!

Ellie, I don't come over to the Dog side much but after you posted in Cat General about my Coco and mentioned Sparky, I checked out this thread. I'm so glad that everything checked out ok. My ret. vet told me that, should I discover a lump, to see if it pulls away from the skin and if I can move it. If so, it's a fatty tumor. However, like you, I'd want to get it checked out anyhow just for my peace of mind. Better safe than sorry. Lots of scritchies to Sparky from me.....
