Good news. After finishing a 14 day course of antibiotics, using antifungal/antibacterial wipes, and a switch in food, Mojo's toes are almost back to normal.
Fingers (and toes) crossed that whatever he had doesn't come back.
(The comment about dogs thinking bitter apple is a great basting sauce was cute. )

Sorry to hear about the lump, it can have so many causes.
Could be from a bite, it's always the best to go to the vet and check. -

Rocky is home from the vet and in his crate. He can't enjoy the company of the other dogs until the end of the weekend. The surgery went well, but the 'mass' was much bigger than I expected. The vet tech showed me the tissue that was removed and it is very large. The 'mass' has roots that were attached to Rocky's neck. Very strange looking, indeed. The tissue will be sent to a lab for a biopsy.
I was given pain pills for Rocky but no instructions how often to give one to him. It is difficult to know when he needs one. I'll have to call the vet's office in the morning and ask for more specific information about the pain meds.
The poor little guy has sure been through a lot in his 11 months. First, living in a pet store, then being attacked by a large dog at the humane society, a foster family, being transported many many miles, and now this. Rocky is very happy to be home with his pack and me. As bad as he was feeling when I brought him home, he wagged his tail when each of the dogs checked on him in the crate.
Rocky was the happiest to see my Eski male, Razzle. Razzle was with me when I picked up Rocky in St. Louis.

Vicki, i'm glad Rockys surgery is over with, poor chap. Lets hope the biopsy results are ok. He deserves to get his life back on track.
Hugs to Rocky and good thoughts. -
Awww, poor little guy!! I hope he recovers well. Seems like he has a bright spirit and will improve quickly!!
Please let us know what your biopsy results are. I've had Miles's lumps checked and the ones I've done have all been fatty tumors. His little body is now literally covered with them so financially we can't do them all. 
But so far, they're just cosmetic problems and nothing else. I hope his lump wasn't anything serious- but to have roots is a little scarey. You're in our thoughts!! Hugs!! -
Poor little Rocky. I am glad surgery went well and that he is home again in his pack, although sheltered. Please know that we are keeping your pack, you included, in our thoughts. Sending good vibes for speedy recovery..
Let us know what the lab said.. -
Good to hear that he is getting back to his rambunctious self, it is a sign of health returning…LOL. Sorry about the lovey..we have taht happen all the time over here, and it is always the dachshund stealing it..grrr

Eli and us are very happy to know that Rocky is feeling much better. When are the labs due back? Eli said kiss and hug Rocky from Kansas.
