Fingers, paws, and tails all crossed. Sending lots of positive thoughts to Indy.

 

Stupid question time. Are female dogs supposed to be somewhat furless on their belly?

 

Hope the surgery goes smoothly and easily tomorrow, and that she recovers with no problems.

Sending warm thoughts and prayers for both you and Indy!!!

 

Fingers and many paws crossed for Indy. Beaming positive thoughts your way.

 

Lisa, fingers and paws crossed for Indy.

Did the Vet see her today. Reason I asked is I (queen of Staph) am seeing things that more ressemble a Staph Infection than cancer.

On the Belly shot either you color in the picture is way off or she has some skin irritation. Also in both leg pictures you can see a oval shape of discolored skin, more so in the bottom one because her fur is wet.

awww

 

LJsMom, good catch on the belly. She was shaved for an ultrasound that she had last month.

Val, interesting about the staph. Her belly is black only on the right side, as that is the side that she exposes to the sun when she goes and lays on the patio. In the winter, it goes back to her usual color. The black blotchy spots though I've been wondering about for a long time (and frankly, worried about it), as she is developing more. She also has some in her anal region. Vet said it's just old age...do you think it's something else?

 

Thank you everyone for the well-wishes

With all this good karma, things are bound to go well. Thank you again!!

 

Lisa, it really looks like there is an oval area around the spot on the leg that is discolored also. Discolored skin usually means Staph Infection, it doesn't have to be all over the body. My DH gets a pocket errupt some place on his body, his is MRSA, but Staph is Staph he just has the super Staph. I would along with looking for cancer want to run a culture and or biopsi looking for some type of infection.

Thanks Val.

I see that oval area on the leg -- I think it's from licking, but I will ask the vet to look at it closely when she's under anesthesia. Right now, she keeps jerking the leg away -- whatever it is, it is bothering her.

 

My vet says that black skin is from Staph too.

 

Indy's in our thoughts and prayers too. Quick surgery, in and out of anesthesia, fast recovery.

Zamboni says, hey, she did anesthesia just two weeks ago, even with minor heart murmur AND high blood pressure. Old gals can handle it just fine.

 

Good thoughts for Indy!!!!

 

Thanks all, she's been dropped off, and I know that the vet will treat her like her own, or even better if that's possible. She said that she will take Indy first for the day. I gotta tell you, thos 7:20 a.m. appointments are tough for me...

We will channel Zamboni's good charma for the day

 

I was so hoping for an update! This time difference thing is a pain the backside!

Continuing to send lots of positive thoughts.

 

Indy update?

It's 5pm. Time to be out of surgery and watching the local news.

 

And now it's 7:00pm
