Hope, don’t be silly, you’re doing the right thing.  I was going to say, just keep an eye on Steve, but you’re already doing that.

Hope, Sheena has said it all.  I too am a conservative pred lowerer (thinking of starting a new club – branch of the paranoid pet owners club). The breathing – ditto – it goes back to normal when the pred is cut down.

Also the weakness, Bingo would fall over all the time at his worse.  Today, he still has some issues in that he can’t jump up on the couch or bed any more.  Back legs have never recovered their full strength, but that’s okay. He just barks or gives me “the look” and I jump to attention.

Oh Tara, this is always in the back of my mind too and something that terrifies me.  Oh Tara, I have no words. I just wish I could give you a big hug and sit there and cry with you.

Oh no Tara. I’m so very sorry. That’s just not fair.

Has the vet given you any more information? Is there any chance chemo might do something?

Big big hugs.

Oh so sad.  Yes he was just a baby and so beautiful.  My condolences to his fur parents.

Vally.

Hope, the fact that he was straining to go and that it’s bright red, sounds like an irritation.

The bowls are called bloat bowls I believe.

Bingo gets this occasionally.  Dr Google tells me its smegma.  Unless it’s excessive or bloody or Ashki can’t stop licking, probably not a concern.  I’ve noticed it on Bingo when I see him starting to really lick his penis.  I use a little bit of warm water, wipe it clean.  Never been an issue in that it stopped in no time at all.  May have noticed it twice in all.
