For those of you who don't know Gus, he's an 11 month old lab/collie.
Yesterday we took him to the vets to get a lump checked out, they removed it this morning and it had all the signs of being a tumour. It's gone for tests. What is an 11 month old pup doing with a tumour?
In the mean time Gus is left with a 6 or 8 inch incision with 12 stitches down behind his left shoulder. He has a buster collar to wear when unattended but it's become obvious he can't be left unattended as he can scratch the wound open. Also he's really stressed out if one of us is not holding him. He's in pain but had all the painkillers he can have until tomorrow.
So we'll have to stay up with him all night, poor brute.
And we have a fortnight to wait for the test results.
And I thought who better to share the misery than all the dogtrickacademians who have shared Gus's story for so long...
