Thank you everyone for your kind words, they really do mean a lot.

Please try and keep positive. A tiny cancerous lump was found in Ozzy's anal gland 2 years ago. The gland was removed and although he was very uncomfortable for a couple of weeks he is still here and doing well. I know how lucky we were because it was caught early so everything crossed for you and Brodie has his tumour is also small. Sorry I don't think the vet told me the exact size.

And a massive thank you, Carol, for this message as it is reassuring to hear of dogs doing so well after diagnosis :luv:. We are lucky to have the Royal Dick Vet in Edinburgh about 40 minutes away and they specialise in cancer, so I'm hoping that a referral there will work in her favour if the results come back positive.

Still can't believe it, it all seems so unreal. It was pure chance that the vet found it, it was the last thing she was expecting to find. Brodie is fine in herself (apart from her legs) although she's very cuddly :luv:. She is getting spoiled as much as possible. Just can't wait for the next few days are over, I'd rather know it was bad news than be sitting around waiting.

I'll keep you all updated xx

The waiting can be really hard. Ozzy's was found by chance as well. He had been in a lot of pain and vet suspected a problem with his spine. He was on metacam and tramadol but still in pain and next thing was x-rays.
But although he had never had a problem with anal glands I had read that they can be very painful so I asked for them to be checked. That is when the lump was found.
He had x-rays and the gland was taken out at the same time. The x-rays showed a calcified disc and arthritis in all legs. As I said that was 2 years ago last month, he is now 10 but doing really well.
I really hope you are worrying about nothing and the results are benign.

Jenny, I am absolutely stunned to read this.  I am so sorry, but like others have said, it has been found sooner than it may have been.  Praying for a positive outcome for Brodie.  You are right about the Royal Dick, good to have them close by.  Sending you and PB  :luv:  all my love and lots of  :bigarmhug: :bigarmhug: :bigarmhug: :bigarmhug: :bigarmhug:

Did he have to have any further treatment or did he just have the lump removed? I've always been certain I wouldn't put Brodie through any tough treatments but now I'm facing the possibility of it maybe happening at some point in the future I'm not so sure! Hopefully it's not something I'll have to think of for some time yet, if at all. I hope Ozzy continues to do well, it really is reassuring to read how well he's doing two years on.

Feeling very nervous today, I'm going to be a wreck tomorrow ph34r. Really hope the results are in  then as I don't think I can cope with waiting another day or so.
