Title: My dog Rocko has Lymphoma ;_;
Post by: BlackMage on July 13, 2011, 09:26:23 PM
Well, my dog just got a biopsy and turns out he has cancer. We originally took him to the vet because he has enlarged groin area and enlarged lymph nodes in the armpit area of his front right leg. Rocko is only 7 years old. Right now he seems ok. Very happy dog, doesn't realize he's sick yet. Once it gets worse and we realize he is suffering, we will put him down. Until then we hope he is as comfortable as possible for as long as possible. I will miss the guy.

Also, it would be nice if I could change my name to Rocko like I originally asked. Please?

Awwww he's just a little guy!!!!!!! I always thought he was as big as my collie, who was, like, 70 lbs.

Shit, Kobe's like 33-35lbs. He's really skinny but hugely tall for a Shiba. They'd be besties!!! :heartbeat

Meiko, OTOH, is a fatty and weighs like 25lbs... maybe more. :(

In this pic he has a mustache. I tried to put hipster glasses on him but he wouldn't stay still.

So Rocko's health is starting to decline.. they are giving him 4-6 weeks left. The only course of action right now is when he starts to suffer is to give him tranquilizers before taking him to the vet to put him down.  :'(

Sad for you. You kept him comforted and loved until the end. Doggies get a free pass into heaven, so there's that. Cats, not so much.

:'(  I really feel for you dude.  But you gave him the best life he could possibly have, which is awesome.
