This is our Husky “Fry” about six months after his leg amputation. This was one of the funniest things he has ever done. Since his amputation he seems to do these spins and it’s so cute! He gets especially excited about his shark so here comes a bunch of three legged spins! His leg was amputated because he had cancer, but fortunately the amputation has taken care of that problem
I was turned down by two Retired racing Greyhound adoption agencies because I had a child under the age of 5 years. Thankfully, I found “Elite Greyhound Adoptions” in West Palm Beach Florida. The Founder of this organization seems to feel the way I do… Not in every situation is a large dog right for a small child, or the child right for the dog. However there are many times when both the right family & right dog can come together & make a perfect match. As I’ve learned over the past year, many retired greyhound adoption agencies have very strict blanket policies. They will not waiver, even in cases where common sense is staring them straight in the face. We had a large retriever “Marylin” that had to be put down after a very expensive fight against cancer. This dog was large & sweet but often clumsy and would bump into our 3 year old daughter. She was used to this and familiar with having a large dog. Our other dog (a small mutt) is a fear biter. Our daughter knows & respects the fact that she cannot pet this dog because there’s a good chance that she’ll get bit. She fully understands this and she’s never tries to pet her unless we are there supervising. This being our background, and having explained this on my initial adoption attempts. I was blown away when I was first turned down for a 6 year old retired racer that was missing a front toe and walked with a heavy limp. “Flash” He had been with the agency for a really long time waiting for someone to try and adopt him …
Question by scooterbetty: My 5 year old dog was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her mouth 3 weeks ago, we are in shock & want 2 do bst?
I am concerned about putting my sweek 5 year old Australian Shepard down to soon, but only want what is best for her and not have her go through extreme pain. She has always been a very sweet and pleasing dog, and new people in her life have picked up her affectionate and silly side. The vet said about a month and that she will probably bleed out or choke by swallowing her blood from the tumor. It has already eaten away her whole upper jaw. Trying to decide given the circumstances and that she will never get better, only worse, do we prolong her time and let her go before she has to completely suffer? Help, I am torn.
Best answer:
Answer by magicmunchkins If her whole upper jaw is gone, she is probably in a lot of pain right now. I can’t tell you what to do, but if she were mine I would do it very soon. A few days at most.

Question by B2B 3-20-10: Does any body know what knee cap replacement surgery is and how long some one would need to recoup from it?
I’m a 24 year old female with a history of osteosarcoma (form of bone cancer). My doctor is sending me to a specialist to have knee cap replacement surgery due to the severe arthritis in my knee. My appointment to talk with the doctor isn’t for a few weeks and I have tons of questions. I just want to know if anybody out there knows or even has had knee cap replacement surgery?
Best answer:
Answer by Mintee my mother had both total knee replacements. (we call her bionic women now).. they actually sawed off the whole knee joint and screwed in a new titanic (good metal) knee in place.. weird huh?.. she couldnt walk for a week, then slowly with physical therapy walking with walker for a couple of weeks, then with a cane. I think it took about 3 months to totally get healed.. Its been a year and a half and she feels great now.. (she did one knee and the other later after 9 months) .. goodluck! She does a lot of water aerobics now to keep her legs nimble as she says..

Question by hms: has anyone had a dog that had liver cancer? did they die on their own or were they euthanized?
my dog is 14 and has liver carcenoma. she doesn’t do much but sleep or eat. she still goes out to potty but she is nothing but skin and bones. we just had another dog put to sleep that had bladder cancer, we knew it was time for her. but this one is hanging on and I don’t want to put her to sleep we just would like her to go quietly by herself. if you have had this experience how long did it go on before you had to do something or did the dog die on their own?
thanks to everyone, except cf who made me feel even more guilty for causing my dogs disease. I have an appt to put Trixie to sleep next wednesday, our vet isn’t in til then and he’s the one I want to do it since he’s taken care of our sick animals, including 2 kittens that died of an URI. it’s hard cause we had our 13 yr old beagle put to sleep 2 weeks ago. she had bladder cancer. Cancer can strike at any time any place. doesn’t mean food intake or care. I know I should take Trix in now but my husband doesn’t know I have the appt yet. It will be very hard on him. It is comforting to know that others feel the same. Trixie was the dog from hell..and I will miss her. I just hope that I am taken care of as well as she has been. thanks everybody for your input

Answer by Chickeyd I am so sorry to hear about your pup.
Just this past January, my 11 year old rottweiler was diagnosed with lymphoma. We opted to not do any radiation, since 6 lymph nodes presented with cancer, and his chances of survival were less than 10%.
He began losing weight, and by late March, he was skin and bones, and eating and sleeping – that’s it. One morning when I came down (he couldn’t get upstairs anymore), he couldn’t raise his head to say hello – he just opened his eyes.
His eyes looked vacant. My husband and I decided that it was time to let him go, and we had him put down that afternoon.
What concerned me is that Jake NEVER complained about pain, but the vet said he must have been in some considerable pain, because of the severe weight loss affecting his joints.
What made me decide it was time was that vacant look in his eyes. He told me he was ready to go.
All I can suggest is you do what you feel is best for your dog. No one can decide for you. She will let you know when it’s time.
His leg was amputated because he had cancer, but fortunately the amputation has taken care of that problem
