We have a partial diagnosis for Muttboy. He has a soft tissue sarcoma, which is a non-specific name for a variety of different types of cancerous tumors. Some of them are more malignant and serious than other types, so I’m hoping that the post-op biopsy shows that it’s the less serious type. He has his surgery on Tuesday morning, and he should be able to come home that night.
I am more than a little anxious about this. I’m going to be spending a lot of time with Muttboy for now, so my posts will be shorter and even more sporadic than usual. Wish him well.

Oh, no! I hope Muttboy has many years left.
I’m sorry to hear the diagnosis, but encouraged that it may not be as serious as feared. I hope you guys are able to spend a lot of quality time together no matter what the prognosis. He’s certainly a lucky pup to have such a caregiver!
Please give Muttboy some extra pets from me! I hope he’s okay.
Poor Muttboy. I hope everything goes okay. He looks like such a nice dog. It’s hard when a pet is ill–they really are part of the family.
Sorry to hear this about Muttboy. Best wishes to him and you for his op on Tuesday.
You both must be sad and worried and I am sorry about that. Spending time with him is the nicest thing you can do.
Oh, no, I’m sorry Hobgoblin 🙂 muttboy will be in my prayers 🙂
Oh no! I hope he’s okay. You’ll all be in Bob’s and my thoughts and prayers.
My thoughts will be with Muttboy. Lloyd and Lucy send their best wishes as well.
I’m so sorry to hear this: I’m sending good thoughts Muttboy’s way (and yours as well).
My thoughts are with you. I hope everything goes well with Muttboy, he sounds like he is in very good hands.
