Hi all

We have Tyler back and she has done really well, the vet is very pleased with her and her scar is very neat and just tucked under her tail which we are very pleased about, as you can see she has to wear the collar for a week which I can tell by the look on her face is not to her liking!!  Although it didnt stop her having her breakfast when she got back!!!
She has a check up on Thursday and will have the stiches out in a week.  The vet cant say for certain that they have caught it and that it wont go any further, the only way to decide this is to go for scans etc which we have decided against.  We just have to keep an eye on her water intake and if it goes up we need to take her back as it means the cancer is active but this sounds like a gradual thing and wont/shouldnt happen tomorrow.  Hopefully we will have a good few months with her yet.

Thank you to you all for your advice and support it has been wonderful and made life a bit easier
Vicky, Tony and Tyler  :luv

Really pleased to read she's home and eating  :luv:
Tyler looks like she has quite a fancy collar on looking at your avatar  ;)
Hope your legs survive the bashing they'll be getting with that on  :005:

So pleased your girl is home with you.  Hopefully the wound will heal up very quickly and you can get back to some normalcy with her for a long time to come  :luv: :luv: :luv:
