6greyhounds Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 Xan Thank you for the chant - I needed that RE: Hershey: she is getting back to her normal self (minus part of her tail) demanding to eat this am and barking at things outside which I think were blowing leaves LOL. I put her e-collar on last night when I went to bed, kept her in the dining room, Penske in the living room and EZ in bed with me (this is new since the third seizure) he would always jump out of bed when I got in.

6greyhounds Posted December 19, 2009 Author Share Posted December 19, 2009 Hope the weather holds off for you, Beryl! Xan No the weather did not hold off for me - it started about 10 pm Friday Night, we are expecting 3 to 5 (not as much as south and east of us) and right now we have a litte over 1 1/2 inches on the ground (it is 7:21 am my time). My grandson has a Jeep so we will try and get there with that. Told him I would give him gas and I have a gas card that I am getting $2.20 off a gallon so it would be to my advantage to just pay maybe $0.40 to $0.50/gallon to get her to the vet.

Guest luvRgreys Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I haven't heard of CA of the tail before. Glad the CXR was clear, always good news. Will wait to hear what the biopsy shows. Praying that Hershey does well!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Praying that Hershey does well!! Where she had the amputation they told me that they have had quite a few dogs with CA of the tail and they had chemo at the oncology unit there. I am trying to find out more info on that. A vet who is very greyhound savy (has a pack of her own) has never heard of it either but said knowing greyhound and they don't read the book this is very probable. remember the tail is a digit and has bones.

Batmom Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Glad she is doing well! IIRC there was another dog here on GT a year or so back that had his/her tail removed due to cancerous lump.

6greyhounds Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 I am ready to shoot Hershey took her e-collar off as I was getting their dinner ready and she ripped off her bandage. I managed to re wrap it with bandages from my stash. I caught her before she had a chance to do any damage Quote It is better to have loved and lostThan never to have loved at allMissing my Big Blue eyed Bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
