Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy- Good Bye Flynny We will miss you

Hi Trish,
catching up and thrilled Flynn's mass is benign but also praying hard it does not grow and no need for surgery! Hugs n Kisses to your adorable little man, he sure is a trooper!

Wow-I don't sign on for a minute or two and you and Flynny go to town with problems! ;) Glad to hear it's benign. Hoping it won't grow. :)
You had another five days off? Didn't you just have 6 weeks off or something like that? You guys have the right idea!!:cool:
Winter has arrived with an attitude here. We may have set a record for low temp over night. I think Sharlene and Addy are trying to get rid of their cold weather and are shooting it down this way. Less than 7 weeks 'til FL.:D:D
Hugs,
Susan

Hi all

Well November continues to suck!! He has developed a little mass on his gumline by his front teeth, it is pushing one of the small ones out of line. Mike has taken a look, doesn't know what it is but he took a photo and wants to recheck it in a couple of weeks to check growth. We could biopsy, or we could just take it out. He said it would only need a little 10min GA to whip it out along with a couple of teeth. He said it looks a lot like a benign lesion that is common in boxers, not so common in his breed.I think if he needs it out then we might wait and see what happens with his scan next month in Auckland as if they need to operate on that stomach lump then they could do the gum one at same time.

Sorry have not been about much, just a lot to deal with here at the moment. Death in the family so I have to travel to the funeral on Friday, not any of my immediate relatives but my SIL's Dad. Sad.

Have had to resort to z/d for his IBD, I am not liking that much, but luckily he is. Plus a new protein for some biscuits, duck and pear Orcana. Tramadol was not going great, he hates it so... so after much discussion with Mike he is back on the previcox and feeling a lot better for that.

Thanks for popping in, sorry not on others threads at the moment but thinking about you all... right off to work I go xxxxx

Well November is more than half way over so no new issues Flynny Boy!

Gosh Trish, you have had your hands full. Sorry to read that.

Koko and I are thinking of you and Flynn.

aww sorry to hear of the new issue. I will be keeping Flynn in my prayers for the mass to be nothing serious. HUGS

I think Flynn is another one that didn't get the memo of "no new issues".

We're going to cruise through December, get this IBD settled down and family all better, physically and emotionally and then start a new year with a positive outlook. ta da!

love and hugs

Must be your weekend, happy weekend!!!! I hope Flynn is perking up.
I just wanted to stop and say hi, I know you have a lot on your plate so wanted you to know i am thinking of you both.

Thanks for sharing a memory of Zoe. Means a lot to me.

Give our cow loving boy a smack on his lips for me , well maybe no if that growth is bothering him. Ok, a smooch on his head which he probably doesn't like.

Our Lucy at work had a small growth on her eye lid; they were able to zap it right off.

Love ya

Praying Flynn will be okay.
Sonja and Angel Apollo

Hey everyone

Thanks for your comments and well wishes, Flynn definitely did not get the memo!! He has a new sore gum area on his back tooth, vet thinks it might be an epuliis... benign. But I think it is sore and he is not liking his food. I know some of you know about our battles with IBD, so he has gone to z/d to try get on top of it, I had been giving him duck biscuits too but have stopped them as well for now and he comes right. But he is not eating well in the morning... he left his breakfast this morning and I took it over to him where he was lying... "breakfast in bed" it worked yesterday, took a wee video of him...

I just don't think he likes it :confused: he does come right and eats well later in the day. So I think I am just going to have to persevere with it for the time being, plus I just bought him a whole tray of it! But hard to tell whether it it is bad taste vs sore mouth vs IBD vs that darn mass in tummy. But I think I will rule out no 4, as we just not going there!!!!

Mike is on this weekend, might just take him in to have a look at that mouth. I did send him a photo which is why he thought it like epuliis ?sp xxx

he acts exactly like my ian when he doesn't want his food!
burry it.............
if he eats it later on the day i would be ok with it.
maybe just skip breakfast and feed it later in the day, so he is more hungry. no snacks before, just the food and when he has finished it, one super tasty treat.......
that is what works with my ian.
