Godspeed in Recovery RB for you ~little one~

Thanks brother he should be fine - he beat a Grade 3 tumor in March (needed radiation and chemo), this was a Grade 1 on his leg, so radiation only - thank god this type doesn't ever tend to metastasize (he had a 40% chance with the one on his shoulder due to Grade 3) - the Grade 1 was there when he did his shoulder treatments but I didn't want to put him through much at the same time, and it tested ok, luckily I said to my wife lets just get it off so we know whether its ok or not and sure enough it was same type -

He just turned 10 and they said the rest of his body inside and out looks like a puppy, so I hope we have many more years. I appreciate your prayers for him, he is in my avatar

Not sure if they are the same either, I just sorta remember reading a bunch of M52 cars on the applications list of the water pump I had installed, but could be recalling wrong lol.

I did almost get a Stewart but with OEM pumps lasting as long as they do the math just didnt work out on it for me.

You have a nice looking pup RB, hope it all goes well with him.

Sorry to hear about the pup RB. We almost lost our "Shadow Demi Lee" this spring to a bizarre blood toxin that shut down her bone marrow for month. Scary when they can't tell you what's wrong, but it keeps things like car repairs and gun collections in perspective. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Love those happy faces!

Yes, hope your pup gets cleared after the next round of treatment RB. You guys are better men than I when it comes to health care for the dogs.

Now that our son and daughter are grown up with families of their own, there's a new batch of youngsters to worry about, but the dogs become the "kids in the house" for us empty nesters as they takeover when the children are gone!

Great pic of the CEO and your adorable babies! Is she ok after the blood toxin?

Total derailing this thread which I feel bad about but that's why this forum is great -

After six weeks of massive steroid use (Which pumped her up from 48 pounds to 63 pounds) and strong antibiotics, her blood chemistry finally went back to normal. Then it took four months to get her weight back down! Funny side effect though was her coat went from black to gray on her back, so we have been giving both dogs the Dinovite supplement since then and wow, Shadow's color came back and both dogs have nicely improved coats and energy levels. Best benefit of the Dinovite though is the blonde one, Sadie Diamond Lil, has a lot less of a "gas" issue! You might take a look at that RB as the Dinovite is an immune system booster too.

And now I have to get back on thread and determine why I detected the sweet smell of anti-freeze under the hood last evening!

OMG all my radio guys advertise Dinovite every day on the radio ( you can imagine what station I listen to on Sirius) - D-I-N-O-V-I-T-E.com (woof)

Its funny how their bodies bounce back and amazing - Chad had to do 5 rounds of chemo spaced 3 weeks apart for each back about 4 months ago after his radiation was done on his Grade 3 tumor site, the chemo rounds were for any potential cells remaining that could metastasize. He actually got some black freckles under his white coat which I thought was hair loss, but his hair is thicker than ever, he just has some "freckles" - I'm going to put up a recent pic - but he is doing great, and as sad as it sounds, its wonderful news that we only have to do radiation this time and we can be done. The chemo really tired him out and made him extremely picky of an eater. 2 weeks after he was done though, back to 2 mile walks a day.
