Hello, I am new to the forum and have a 7 year old female Bulldog named Roxy. She had a tumor removed on her thyroid back in July of 2012. The surgeon stated that the tumor showed some cancer cells. We were offered the option of chemo and radiation, which both my husband and I refused. We didn't want to put her through that. We did try holistic meds which seemed to help. She drinks water excessively and goes through bowls of it everyday. I had her tested for diabetes and kidney function and the tests came back negative. Not sure if this is related to the removal of the thyroid. We are very concerned and don't know what could be causing this excessive thirst all day/night. Does anyone have any experience with this? I was thinking of taking her back to vet but we always get the same responses. Thank you for all of your help. This is a terrific forum!
