Not doing galleries or putting up any other photos today. I am exhausted mentally and physically and sometimes you have to be proactive.
All the dogs are having a blast.
We had Risa in to the vets for a growth on the end of her ear flap. They were talking about taking the ear off. When all was said and done they took the growth off. Due to the growth being fast they assumed skin cancer and removed vs. wait. We worried about anesthesia etc but she is still stoned but she sure wants her food. She is also jumping up on to the couch with ease - so even stoned she is agile. She has a bit of laboured breathing but that shall pass when the narcotics wears off we hope. She did have a tube down her throat. We get the biopsy results back by Thursday.
When taking it off he is now leaning towards it being a Sebaceous Gland Tumor. If this is the case it is benign. If not, we removed it. Risa has been healthy without issues. Pre-surgery test results all came back as if she is a young thing that runs marathons without the damage of impact us crazy humans do when we go into overdrive with sports. Every test she has had has been positive.
But I did have my mind wander and I worried through surgery and I do want to spend the time with her as she is still having breathing you can hear. So blogs will be short.
Please realize that as your havanese gets old they can get lumps and bumps that are just that and nothing more but still we always worry. Its normal to worry about those we love.
