HHorn Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 So we had a visit to the vet today to get Sally looked at and Gus came along for the ride. Since he is on a wellness plan they looked over Gus and the little bump in his ear last week was a large weird looking polyp thing. So they have him scheduled to remove the growth thing today, and he will have to be put under with an IV and all to remove it. I'm still waiting on the call from the vet. They know him well, and will take good care of him, but it is still stressful to have my furbaby getting cut on. We are going to have it biopsied, hopefully it is just a wart or infection or somthing benign. Sally was nervous about the vet, but she checked out just fine. She has tapeworms, but that is easily fixed, and not that unusual. We have an appointment with my dog trainer tomorrow night to help me handle Gus and Sally as they settle in. they get along most of the time but Gus is a little resource guarder, and Sally will really tell him what she thinks. No big fights or anything, I just want to make sure I am handling it right, especially the resource guarding. I just wish I knew how he was doing!!

Dixie_Girl Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Poor baby! Hope all goes well. Glad they are settling in. Sometimes it can take a bit. Please keep us up dated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samantha J Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 I am sure everything will be fine. I know it's horrid when they are in vets hands. We have a wonderful vet too but i still hated Holly being in there when she had her spay op. Good luck and hope it's nothing serious.

HHorn Posted June 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 They called and he is waking up. The procedure went well and we will hopefully get the biopsy results tomorrow or the next day. Just in case they are going to send him home with pain meds, and he gets to wear the e-collar again. He gets to come home in a few hours, we will try to keep it all calm for him. LOL, I should have asked if they could put a stud through it, but then he'd REALLY look like a girl dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HCBell Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 OH Hayley, I know that you are stressed over this. Gus will be fine. Just a little bump in the road of life. He will eat up all of the extra attention when he gets home. Give him kisses from Roxie and and Aunt Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyoBC Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 I'm glad he came out ok. Be sure to give him lots of hugs for being such a good boy at the vet. Get well soon Gus!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beth G Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Good luck with the results. Hope it turns out ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HCBell Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 I saw Gus today, no worse for the wear, a little sensitive when you mess with his ear, but who wouldn't be. Vet did not call Hayley with the results yet and I know she is still worried about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allie Oop Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Thinking positive thoughts for Gus. I hope that all goes well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
