hi so my sweet dog is a 12 year old yorkie. she’s been a rockstar at staying healthy her whole life and it’s given me so much hope. her sister passed away a few years ago due to organ failure and sensitivity to food…but she’s never had problems. recently we’ve started to see a change in her behavior and i started to be scared. i made my mom make a vet appointment and when we got there she straight up: vomited 5 times. peed blood. and had bloody diarrhea. they did an x ray on her and i guess she has a mass near her liver??!! this is insane because i feel like 4 days ago she was just a happy little girl like she always is. i’m not ready to lose her and im horrified to see if it’s cancer. this dog is my best friend and she makes me feel so so happy. please please if anyone has ever had similar experiences or helped a pup with these symptoms… please help me out. i cannot lose my baby.
well she’s now home and it seems that she has a large tumor on her liver and pancreatitis 💔 she got some antibiotics and other medication to make her feel better. definitely looking better!!
I'm so sorry you're going through this. Do you have bloodwork results, imaging you could share?
I do commend your mom for listening to you and getting her checked out. It breaks my heart when teens and younger kids recognize their pet is sick and parents don't listen. I feel so helpless talking to them. Kudos to your mom.
well unfortunately i don’t have anything to share but i do know that her liver had some off the charts issues and its caused by the mass. and thank god my mom listened because my best friend had the same issue with her epileptic chihuahua and guess who died a week later 💔
You have a very senior pet, OP. And she is sick. Other than the radiographs, what other diagnostics were done?
