glad your dog got better mate
unfortunatly the outcome wasnt so good for my tia
took her to vets other week they messed with her leg and said they couldnt find any obvious injury so gave her anti-inflamatory injection and a course of tablets, 2 week later she was refusing to use the leg at all just holding it up when walking.
took her back to vet on thurs they said she needed an xray and to bring her back friday for her to be sedated for the x rays, i thought at the very very worst she might have broken it somehow,
they phoned me at 1pm telling me the bad news it was bone cancer and advised me the best thing would be to put her to sleep while she was already sedated, they said amputation would not be advisable in such a big dog and the cancer would almost certainly have spread,
i agreed but asked to keep her sedated till i got there almost 20 miles,
when i arrived she i was led to the back where she was led freezing cold on a cold floor heavily sedated, i held her head in my hands while she took her last breath
it was absolutly heartbreaking. i cant believe she has gone we have had her 8 years and as you can imagine the size of her she had a big presence in the house, we have had her cremated and awaiting ashes back costing £180 but well worth it.
we will never forgot our big beautiful baby, a pic or 2 added
sorry to bring misery
