I just noticed a lump on Birdie's neck. I'm taking Osorno to the vet tomorrow AM to check up on an anal gland infection, I'm calling them in the AM to see if I can bring in Birdie to get this checked out. Birdie will be 12 this year.
I need the power of GT. This little guy is such a PITA but such a big part of our life.
Update: 3/23: Birdie finished his last dose of antibiotics last night and the lump is gone! Folks, this was an almost golfball sized lump (very visible on a JRT). The vet was right. So, for future reference, if there is only ONE overly swollen gland that shows up quickly, almost overnight, there is no need to immediately freak out. Thanks for all the good thoughts!
