Like i said in yesterdays post,she was up and about when i got home last night. Tail was wagging. She was starving. She ate 2 plates of food and then she wanted the kids KFC (didnt get any).
I woke up at 4am this morning with no dog in the bed. She was on the floor staring at me. Thought she wanted to go outside. Nope,she wanted to go out in the living room to bully the boy sleeping on the couch off the couch.she finally got him to wake up 45 minutes ago. He moved to the crappy end of the couch and she hopped up into his spot and went to sleep. Took her 4 hours to get what she wanted. Damn hard headed pit bull,she dont give up till she gets what she wants🤣
What seems to be happening is the lump gets bigger,she doesnt feel good for a day or 2.then when shes getting up and doing dog things again the lump shrinks back to its "normal" size. the breath gets worse during this as well and goes back to the normal stink when shes done feeling like shit.
Waiting on a call back from my vet.unless its an emergency,he usually calls back in a day or 2. If there was an emergency,id just call his office. Gotta see about doing something withnthe lump. I feel that is the cause of most of the issues shes having.
If it werent for the lump and the top of her head sunk in,you really wouldnt know she was sick and possibly dieing. Visually,she doesnt seem to be losing weight. When shes not feeling like shit,shes being 80% of her normal pain in the ass self.
A healthy appetite and doing dog things sounds like improvement. If the cancer is in remission, it may be a two-steps-forward-one-step-back type of trend, so progress would be noticed weekly instead of daily.
She’s good girl. Thank you for being such a good dad.
Will keep the prayers going.
Sounds good so far! My dog has a lump as well.
I wish the lump was somewhere else. Itbwould still be a problem but less of a problem. Its right on her snoot under her eye. So its affecting her eye,breathing and her mouth. Most likely the reason she cant open her mouth too far. We make her food so she can just slurp and swallow it without having to do too much chewing.
Been reading your daily posts from the beginning.
This constant cycle of filling and draining sounds more like tooth abscess that is trying to spread into her skull (poor pup) 😞.
I think you said you were trying to get an appointment to have the vet drain it right? They need to flush it out also. Might be a bad tooth that needs to be pulled.
Best of luck! 🙏🤞
Thanks for the update fren. Hang in there, she's worth it.
Double.
The.
Dose.
It’s non-toxic. Fire hose that thing man. What are you waiting for?
I had the same thought. Except on myself with ivermectin. Took 12mg pills three days in a row now. No ill effects. Gonna get fenben next.
I ordered my fenbenzodole a couple days ago. I’m gonna start taking a prophylactically.
Agreed.... praying!! 🙏
She seems much improved.
I wonder if the lump needs to be lanced and drained. Your vet will address it.
I don't know what kind of lump it is. Is there a possibility it's some kind of cyst? A couple GAW people recommended DrawSalve for lipomas. My husband used some on his "lipoma" (which doctors called it) on his neck (which he has had for years). The dang stuff works and all kinds of nasty stuff drained out and now it's barely there. Message me if you want more details
I didnt have any tests done. My vet been in practice 40+ years. I believe he knows what he sees.
But this started with her grinding and chattering her teeth. I figured it was a string or something from her toy stuck between 2 teeth or broke a tooth. I brought her in,had 2 teeth pulled. 1 was broken the other was just floating in the socket. The smell went away for a couple days and came back.then the lump started growing and top of her head sunk in. Ended up having a 3rd tooth pulled. Smell went away for a week or so and came back. She was on 2 different antibiotics for 2 months straight,they didnt do anything. Shes also got 3 or 4 lumps in her neck,swollen lymphnodes.
If you keep your dog on an antibiotic for an extended amount of time, you should at least make sure they’re having some kind of probiotic.
This made my day! I’m so glad to hear she’s doing better. Continuing to pray!
I read something about injecting frankincense into dog tumors. Also goes by the name boswellia.

Thank God for this extra time with your wonderful pup. Sounds like you and your family and her are making happy memories
Did tests confirm it was cancer? Can’t recall that from your previous posts I read.
Thank you for telling us how she is doing. I really want her to live. God help my friend and his beautiful baby girl to heal in the name of your son Jesus Christ. Amen.
I wonder if you could use colloidal silver in her mouth to help, maybe the smell and not feeling well is from infection. Maybe someone else on here could suggest how to treat an open canker like that.
Found this video on YouTube today about fenbenzodole of all things. Cancer tips, for people and humans.

Maybe get a second opinion. I’ve had one vet tell me something had to be done (that will be $1,000) and another vet say nothing had to be done. It sure sounds like an abscess .
They are probably concerned to put her under anesthesia and long surgery unless healthy enough
