hope you're feeling ok... well eventually she managed it I gave her a few prunes but no idea if they helped or not The problem now is she wont chill and the wound on her leg is not healing well but thats another story..

I phoned the vets and they've closed already I have just fed her and put a lot of water in with it - she ate it all up the little piglet that she is :D so I will just keep taking her out every hour and hope for the best if I dont get a good result by morning she will be off to the vets I just want to thank everyone who replied when you are worried and someone helps it means more than you know

I feed her raw meat and veggies and I've added water to the veggies. She wont drink so I have syringed water into her mouth... she doesnt want to go outside because its raining which isnt helping :-(

thank you I will feed her now as usual and call the vet I just didnt know if it was normal for post op dogs... she is usually a regular

She had a lump removed (cancer) on her leg and also a couple of other bits taken off abdomen. I fasted her from 7pm Thursday till the op on Friday The vets fed her on Saturday and said she did a poo about 2pm - and now nothing since then- although I have fed her 2 small meals and a few treats. She has a morphine patch on.

Before I phone the vet, can anyone with experience please help. My foxy had an op on Friday morning and we got her home yesterday, Saturday, at 3pm. She cant walk properly so I have been carrying her outside to toilet. Its now Sunday 6pm and she still hasnt done a 'poo' is this normal? is there anything edible I can give her to help? would appreciate any comments thanks

sorry to hear that rmc ... thanks JulesLuvsCavs - I think anyone reading this topic who has had this happen would be urging everyone to get any lump checked... I was so sure the vet was going to say it was nothing, just a cyst what a shock...

I did just find a lump - and got it checked - its cancer Better safe than sorry

Hi Staffyluv just been reading Ollies thread - what a trooper!! hope he's doing ok

Hi Carolyn how is Jedda going? best wishes to you both

Included is a photo I took when I got him home. Oh Jasper is gorgeous - my own little foxy was diagnosed with cancer on Sunday. I am just reading the threads in the forum you havent posted for a while is he doing ok?

I have just found this part of the forum CnR you replied to my post in the health section and I didnt know you were going through this, so sorry to hear good luck for today

sorry for the double posting I'm rubbish at this thanks for your reply - appreciate it - might make it easier for me to research I wasnt getting much with 'spiral'

My gorgeous little foxy has a lump - about the size of a small pea - on the inside of her back leg. The vet just phoned my partner with the test results so I'm not sure if he got the terminology correct but he says he was told it was a single cell spiral carcinoma? Has anyone had experience of this. We have to take our girl in for an xray to see if its spread to her internal organs. I will do more research just wondered if any one else has experience of this. I'm devastated.

I feed my foxy mostly raw but thought I would try orijen as a stand-by. No grains sounded good as she has chronic skin problems. She absolutely stinks on it!! I can only give her say 15 kibbles or the stench is disgusting.... and the soft poos - yuck!! She doesnt smell at all on barf I will use it up as treats only but wouldnt buy it again
