That's great news, Kate. It's good that Sue checked and was able to remove the second lump under the same anaesthetic. Thinking of you and sending lots of
for a speedy recovery.

Thinking of you, Reuben will be home by the time you read this and I hope not feeling too bad, it is the anaesthesia which seems to upset them most.

Here he is, he is softly crying which I expected but in true labrador style, he has eaten his tea xx Sue could not get margins from the second lump, but has got good ones from the one on his thigh , long wait now for results xx

I hope that you have a peaceful night, and that Reuben is feeling better in the morning. At least he's safely through the anaesthetic and surgery, recovery time now.

I thought it would be so , whimpering all night and still this morning poor lamb . We have to be at the Vets at 9.30 for a wound check and then I might just go back to bed for an hour . I will not put him through this again xx

I so hope he is beginning to feel better, did the vet suggest anything to help when you saw her this morning?

I hope all goes well at vet check up. Hunter seems to get worse with every GA he has. Last time it took him 3 days to fully recover. Highly recommend that you take a power nap.

Wound check went well , thanks to the Licki mat and liver paste which distracted him 
He was reluctant to let Sue take the dressing off his hock but I managed to do it . Sue had to make a few small cuts of his hock to remove the lump so he had stitches , all looks really good and clean , back on Friday for another check and then 1st November all stitches out . I had walked them both at Golitha before the Vets , Reuben was quite disgusted at being kept on lead but it has to be for a week or so xx
