Dear old boy - what a treasure, and how wonderful that he got to have his last time with you . I'm sure his grin will live on . Run free now fella

hi Gosh - I remember when your 'puppy' WAS a puppy - how time flies!! My Mitchell was COVERED in lipomas by the time he was an old boy- he had been on long-term steroids, and I had been told to expect something like this ..I didn't bother with vet checks anymore, as the others said - by feel I could tell what they were ( I had worked with dogs, and at a vets for years , too) , and just let them be - but he felt like his his skin was stuffed with M&M's, & some larger ones . As they din't impair his mobility or anything, we just left them there ...& he was just Old Lumpy! I hope you can find a vet who can carry out the procedure to satisfy you at a much cheaper price !

LMO - glad you have repairs nearly finished, and Mezza almost sorted as well! What a busy and stressful time !

Didn't he grow into a handsome boy ? I love the one with his chin on the ground Thanks for the update!

Simon is a handsome man!

Eye removal removes the PAIN . Really . The vet I worked for did quite a few - and it was amazing just how well dogs coped, and how much happier they seemed to feel without that ugly sore eye ! ... . And , as long as her nose works well, and she is 'with it' , being severely vision-impaired is not the worst thing . She can find things by scent Shecan wear a "halo" to help , too

Poor old girl perhaps ask the vet for alternative treatment if it is too distressing ... ? Ulcers can take a long time to treat , too. have you tried offering her the BEST treat at the same time ? Like have the treat there as you put in the drops ..and let her eat it immediately ..roast chicken, or some smelly fish ...something very different she can't resist ! That might help a bit

Ho,. Ho,. Ho Happy Season's Greetings & all that . yes, I guess it's "that" time of the years again At least now you have a good plan which will help. Hoping the Wet brings lots of green, and not much itch!

Love it

Oh, Jules- how lovely ! She looks beautiful - and will be a lively addition to your little family.! Welcome, Stephie!

Hello, Dublin!!

I copied/pasted this highlighted bit into the address bar to get the image - then copied/pasted that into this reply There's probably an easier way. ... @Loving my Oldies

Go, gorgeous boy That eyebrow will take you far LOL

Hi If she's licking - there could be pain there from stretching or fluid buildup ... sorry I can't be of more help. If she had a complete ovario-hysterectomy it should not be a false pregnacy ...weird

How old is your dog ? They could just be pigment spots/'age spots' ..or if a puppy, just part of the normal colouration pattern .A vet is the only person who can give you an answer and treatment options , as we are not vets, and can not see your little dog

fair concern, too..

Oh, @sandgrubber R I P Bonza Girl - run free now ... Not a good day for you , SG , but the "right" day. Take care now , be kind to you .

Condolences @Powerlegs

Fantastic! Good Work, Sooty!

WE currently have a senior, old Wags - around 15 ..and he can STILL boss the younger dogs around , although if he lifts his leg wrong he falls over ....he's not yet ready , even though he's deaf and spends half the night barking at "things" ..... he can spot a bitch in season at a distance and still do a prance ...he's not yet ready , although he has no teeth ... dear old Wags .. he will go before he becomes too "old" ...

Same here...

This is definitely the only way to find your heart's desire
