Question:
Some of you might remember that not to long ago my 11 year old family dog Jessie had a lump removed from her belly. Unfortunately, the lump has now grown back as big as before (the vet couldn't remove all of it the first time around). The lump didn't seem to be causing Jess too much trouble but just last night, she didn't eat all of her food and she was having a hard time walking. My mom took her to the vet this morning and the vet gave her some pain killers and told mom to bring Jessie back on Monday if things don't improve.
Thankfully, Jessie ate all of her food and meds when she got home from the vet, so I am hoping that she was just having a bad day (she had snuck out and spent the previous night outside so I'm thinking that maybe her bones were just aching from being out in the cold). As long as she keeps eating, everything should be okay. But if she deteriorates (stops eating and continues to be in pain), my mom is going to have her euthanized.


Answer:
Hope she recovers and feels better soon!


Answer:
Thanks Sophie. Me too. She's such a sweet dog. She loves everyone and is always so happy.
I hate hearing from my mom and brother that she's in pain.
Here are a couple of pics of her:


Answer:
I'll keep them in my thought and cross my fingers. Poor Jessie, she sounds like a real love.


Answer:
Danielle, I am so sorry to hear Jessie is not feeling well. I hope she is just having a bad day and feels better soon.
Thoughts and prayers go out to you and Jessie.


Answer:
I hope all goes well, and that she regains her health


Answer:
Thanks Denise.


Answer:
What a sweet old girl! Hope she starts to feel better soon..
Will they have to remove the lump again if she improves? Or just leave it be..


Answer:
They're just going to leave it because the vet couldn't remove all of it the first time, so it would probably just grow back again (that and Jess is getting old and my mom doesn't want to put her through any more surgeries.)


Answer:
Danielle, how is she doing now?
