@Emily_Babbelhund results from the Lab are usually about a week xx

We are going to wait for results before undertaking what would be a massive surgery for Reuben . I am trying hard to think positively and failing miserably , he just has to be alright x Histiocytomas usually just shrink and disappear , so I wouldnt want to remove if this is what it is xx

Just back and Reuben has had a FNA . Sue says she thinks it is either a histiocytoma or a cancerous tumour . The advice would usually be to wait for a week or so to see if it grows but being where it is on his inner thigh , if it grows much more she would not be able to get good margins as there...

Thank you so much , prayers and thoughts are very welcome indeed . It has been a long few days and I just want tomorrow over with although I know that I wont get a definitive answer but it will be a start xxx

Sounds like a plan , a good plan too . Dear Carbon will get his much needed break and will be happier I`m sure xxx

What a massive progression , she is slowly trusting you which is wonderful as our beloved dogs trust is a thing to treasure , well done both of you xx

Sadly it isnt a fatty lump , its totally different as its very firm and has now broken through his fur so it is visible on the surface . Thank you friends for your good wishes , all so much appreciated xxx

I am distraught , I found a small lump on his inner thigh a while ago , but it disappeared on its own . Now it is back with a vengeance so he is booked in for a FNA on Tuesday . I could have booked him in with a different Vet on Monday but we dont know her and our lovely Sue had a slot free on...

Just two words , Good Luck:goodluck:

Yes ! I buy the ones in spring water for Reubs xx

Having spent hours trawling through the minefield , I have insured Reuben with Napo , one of the few who will insure him given his mast cell cancer . It states on their website that he will be fully covered as long as a previous illness was over 24 months ago , and on checking , his surgery was...

Yes, dogs can get gallstones . Hoping your dear boy improves soon xx

So pleased that you are both home safe and sound, sleep well xx

I am so relieved that the surgeon didnt agree with surgery for now at least , Harley has been through so much, it would be too hard on her ( in my humble opinion ) . Hoping she continues to enjoy her little walks and puddle splashes , dear girl xxx

I have cancelled Reubens policy this morning . I do feel a bit sick to be honest , so will have a hunt around ( rather quickly ) to find an insurer who will take him on with a pre existing condition , if not I will make sure we have enough in the pot for him . It really is a minefield and a...

I also use the one Cath has mentioned xx

I had a letter from Tesco this morning , Reubens insurance has gone up to 75 pounds a month from 45 . I find this excessive and so will be hunting around before 12th October when the Tesco renewal starts . It is over 2 years since his Mast Cell cancer so the rise cannot be down to that and I...

Bless you Carbon , Reuben sends ear licks xxx

Do you have a local dog field you could hire for an hour Sonia ? Just thinking ahead that it would be a safe place to allow her off lead and also some training xx

How lovely and encouraging to read , well done to you both xx
