Huge Bump on Princess

Honey_Bear · Nov 23, 2006

There is a huge bump on Princess' stomach! It used to be small, but now it's pretty big. She's had it seen she had her pups (like 2 or 3 years ago), and it's been getting bigger. She hasn't changed at all since it was there, and it doesn't bother her at all. What do you think it is? Maybe a tumor or something? I couldn't get any pictures, but maybe the description will help.

I am going to tell you this...like I have been.....GO TO THE VET ASAP!!!

And everyone will say the same...I am 100% sure!

Honey_Bear · Nov 23, 2006

Okay. I'll try to convince Dad. If I can't, I'll call Dr. Gardener myself tomorrow cuz he's not open today. And I'll explain it to him.

Lizmo · Nov 23, 2006

You are really gonna call?

Honey_Bear · Nov 23, 2006

If daddy doesn't. I mean . . . . what if this "thing" is something that could be really dangerous? I couldn't imagine life without Princess, and I don't want it to be my fault cuz of laziness and carelessness that she might die.

Lizmo · Nov 23, 2006

Well I do not think she will "die" but it is probably a tumer! :yikes:

My brothers intact female died of mammory cancer. I am not trying to scare you or anything but you should really see a vet. At least to ease your wondering. My brother opted not to do surgery as the dog was 14 years old and at her stage would have only prolonged her life a couple months. I am glad she didn't suffer in her last days.

I assume you are young, and your dad is responsible for the dog in the end. It should be his responsiblity to seek care for this. I hope he agrees.

I wish you and your dog the best.

If he doesn't agree, I'm used to taking things into my own little hands! LOL!

Sorry, but sounds like it could be mammary cancer to me. Is she spayed? If she's not spayed or was spayed after she had a heat cycle the risk is higher. Get her to the vet ASAP, it's a very serious form of cancer!

Vet!

Honey_Bear · Nov 24, 2006

When is her heat cycle? We spayed her after she had the pups, (about 2 or three years ago) when she was 5 or 6.

Dulce Pit Bull · Nov 24, 2006

*cringe* Why did she have puppies?

elegy · Nov 24, 2006

it definitely needs to be checked, and sooner is better than later.

The woman said she was fixed, but we found out she wasn't when she had puppies with a mini pin.

Dulce Pit Bull · Nov 24, 2006

That's why you CHECK. Ugh.

Debi · Nov 24, 2006

are your parents aware that this lump has been growing?? for how long? sure hope the poor pup is ok.

Whisper · Nov 24, 2006

Vet as soon as possible! That really should be checked very soon.

~Jessie~ · Nov 24, 2006

She really needs to go to the vet asap. The sooner you bring her, the cheaper the vet care will be.

Lizmo · Nov 24, 2006

Did you call the vet?
