I will keep little Toby in my thoughts... I'm sure everything will be fine!! Maybe its scar tissue from the shot that will prob. go down after a while...
My prayers are there for Toby. I'm sure if it was anything to be too concerned with at the moment, the Doctor would have taken immediate action rather than to have you keep a close eye on it. Chin up and think positive thougths
Pico gets little bumps from time to time around his jaw and they just go away after a while. I'm sure Toby's will, too. Probably just like the vet said, swelling from his vacinnation site.
Pico sends Toby a kiss.....he's all man but very cosmopolitan!
awww, poor toby! ellie got a bump from vaccinations also. and then ellie and sprite got bumps from not getting a good suture from a spay. when gruffi got his bump on his face---we assumed it was a bee sting. our vet didnt know what it was. but he said 'if its a bee, give him childrens benedryl' and the bump went away after a week. my point is that even though a vet doesnt know what it is--doesnt mean that it's bad.
Maxi and i will pray that everything is fine
i just took Maxi for xrays of his heart on wed because
he is having this rapid heartbeat when he sleeping and it sounds like his teeth are chattering scares the heck out of me so there was thank god nothing on the xray but he said if it continues they will call in a cardiologist and maybe hook him with the monitor at night to record these rapid beats
does any of your babies heart races when they are sleeping
im so upset and nervous

I am kind of worried about Toby. The other night my husband felt a bump/knot on his left side, midway between his spine and belly, it is about the size of a pea. Luckily, Wally, my Beagle, had a vet appointment the next day, so I took Toby along. The vet checked the knot and said he wasn't sure what it was. He thought it could be a hemotoma (sp?) from where he got his vaccinations two weeks ago. Toby is set to be neutered on June 7, so the vet said to keep an eye on it and if it doesn't get smaller, they will remove it and biopsy while he is under anastesia. He said if it gets worse, to bring him in sooner and they will do the neutering and the removal in the next couple of weeks.
Has anyone encountered anything like this? Please send Toby lots of good thought our way!
sounds like a vaccine reaction to me...we see them all the time in the vet world...im sure everything will be fine, but i will have toby in my thoughts
Good luck at the vet with Toby. I know the neutering alone is nerve racking and with the lump I know you are worried. Keep your chin up, our thoughts are with you both.... everything will be fine!
Today I brought home a rescue Maltese-cotón tulear mix.
She’ll stay with Belle and me till her forever family is fixed (the shelter is currently reviewing 2 families). Within a week or fortnight they should have a family.
She gets along very well with Belle, but she’s scared of me. When I give...
I was wondering about the weight our babies should be. Kobe is 3.5 lbs and according to the vet he hasn’t gained anything this last month. It worries me a little bit. The vet says that it’s fine but he seems skinny to me. He eats well. I serve his a half cup and we free feed. He eats probably...
We need to stop this! The problem is that Snowball is 8 years old and is the sweetest dog you ever saw! EVERYONE loves him and that is the problem. Sometimes they will try to pet him and he is OK. At other times he is still nice and adorable but when a person gets too close he will bark and go...
I hate it when Bailey isn't feeling well...which is not too often, luckily. But he is sick right now and I could really use some advice. Monday night, he started pacing back and forth and crying to go outside (not normal for him)...I took him out and he had a really loose stool. That day, he had...
I didn't want to hijack Baileysmommy Sad Story thread, but it did get me to wonder. This past weekend I had to get re-certified for CPR and first aid. During the class infants, and dogs were discussed in reference to CPR, how to breath for them, and choking.
I was wondering how many members out...
