Post by ADKH »

sadly Kodi developed lymphoma and I had to put my boy to sleep two weeks ago. I am devastated by his passing. I felt a lump under his throat as I was bathing him in the shower in January and my vet came over that night on his way home from work and felt it. He said it did not look good to take him into the office the next day and he would biopsy it there. It came back lymphoma. We did chemo and radiation on him for three months but it spread and I could not save him. I miss him terribly and the house is not the same. Remember to check your dogs real good for lumps under the neck area by their groin areas and above the rear leg elbow joints. Kodi R.I.P. baby.

I am terribly sorry for your loss. I know how devastating it is. Your advice and sharing it with us is very important. I would add to check your dogs mouth. I lost my own Kody to an oral cancer 10 years ago.

I am so sorry. I hope it is a consolation for you that Kodi knew he was loved in his short life and that means he was happy.
