A Little Recap, and more on having an older dog.

As we know, Max had his 6th birthday on the 5th. He has also started to develop white hairs on his nose.

On the 4th I took him in with Colbert, who got a rabies titer, to let the vet look at a lump on Max's head.

It was about the size of a bee-bee, but would get smaller or larger when it felt like it, due to the fact that it was a solid mass, the vet wanted to take it off. They didn't think it was cancer, but the possibility was definitely there.

That was done on the 17th, Max had the most awesome hair cut (still does, but it's nearly all grown back in by now), it was to be 10 to 14 days til we got the result.




































The day before Thanksgiving we got the call, it was a benign lump, and a fairly common type of tumor, and in the usual spot it is found on dogs. Something we will have to be on the look out as he gets older.

Nov 27th, Buela turned 4. and on the 3rd of December, Colbert also turned 4.
