DDog has been bleeding out of his bum. The vet thought maybe an abscess and he's been on antibiotics since friday but no change. It's not smelly or pussey but there is a definite big lump there. He keeps suddenly bleeding so has had to be kept in the kitchen mostly because of trying to get blood out of the carpet.
Back to the vet tomorriw.
He's quite cheerful and not in pain, except when I'm trying to was his back end. He's eating as normal.
I think the vet is going to suggest sedating him so he can have a proper look.
If it is an abscess I suppose it can be drained.
But if it is a tumour what do we do?
Do I tell them to carry on and PTS straight away?
Or wake him up and carry on with him bleding all iver the place and banushed to the kitchen until he looks ill.
Or make a date for the near future.
Or go down the surgery/treatment toute.
Or make appointment for sedating and exploring for next week, and give him a last weekend, nice walks and chicken, expecting the worst.
He is 13, wobbly, spinal disease type arthritis,
What do I do?
