All went well. The vet gave anti-anxiety meds at his last appt to give prior to this one, so Stig was more relaxed.
His vet commented that he has typical bulldog lungs, meaning although theyāre not the most ideal, but very normal for a bulldog. His abdomenās clear. His prostate is slightly...
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers everyone ... please keep them coming. His next appt is tomorrow @noon. Hopefully itāll be uneventful and everything goes well.
Today was Stiggy's appt. The oncologist suggested an ultrasound of his abdomen and an X-ray of his lungs, which require sedation. Unfortunately, they were conservative in the first dose, which required a second. But Stiggy was getting frustrated and showed a little aggression, so they decided...
The results came back and the vet said that it was a tumour. :( But she also said that in 90% of the cases, it is benign.

Hi everyone. Stiggy is getting neutered tomorrow for a suspected growth. Heās acting well thankfully. My husband noticed it and went to the vet right away.
i was hoping that someone can provide me with insight on the most up to date safest method of anaesthesia on bulldogs. I know last time...
Thank you for the kind words everyone. I knew he was up there in age but I guess one could never be ready to see a loved one go.
Stiggy is doing okay, but itās obvious that he misses him. On his walks he would stop always stop for a few minutes and look around. Unsure if heās looking for...
We unexpectedly lost our sweet Punkin :heart: the morning of May 17th. He was in the middle of eating breakfast, and his heart gave out. Our hearts ache and we've cried many tears. We miss him oh so much.
Veteran ebn'ers here know that he joined our family when he was four and half years...
