You have no idea how encouraging it is to hear this. We took our 1 year old in for a dislocated toe…apparently he has lax joints and that toe needed to be amputated, at that time they x-rayed the other paws and the other back one showed up with lytic bone. The vet said this could be infection or cancer and to amputate that as well. We thought that was extreme at the time and didn't do it. Instead we took anticbiotics to clear up the infection...5 months later we are awaiting surgery in 2 days to have it amputated and sent off for histology. He's been on antibiotics for months and the new ones have taken care of the swelling but now his lymph nodes are enlarged and he is obviously sick. We have had every test possible without amputating and no answers as to whats going on...so happy your dog is going to be fine and have hope that our boy will get the same diagnosis.
Tillo's hips and elbows..

..are in perfect shape
We had him x-rayed two weeks ago. He did wonderful without any anaesthetics and the Doc told us it all looked very nice. We got home from a small vacation today and found the results in our mailbox..
Hips: HD A (= Excellent)
Elbows: ED FreeOf course we are very happy with these results!

Can Tillo get more perfect?? I just love him to bits! Driving back from a dog show yesterday I started talking about him to my husband. Janneke, you are lucky I do not live near you!

OH NO! I could never 'steal'. But permanently 'borrow'? That's another story. I just think he is stunning and I love all of the adventures he has that you share with us.
