My 2 yr old golden, Lucy, was persitent in smelling and licking the back of her littermate Harry"s, neck last November. I thought I may have spilled food on him but when I felt it --there was a Very small lump and after watching it for 4 weeks -we saw it grow and soon found out it was an aggressive sarcoma for which Harry has undergone chemo and radiation and so far (6 months out) is doing well. Unfortunately now Lucy has a similar lump on her shoulder---and we'll see this week if her path will be the same! Harry has not been "drawn" to it so I'm hoping it will be nothing.. Harry does not have the same "intensity" Lucy has as he is afraid of bird feathers, afraid of swimming and would much rather spend his days on the couch napping!! He reminds us of the "cowardly lion". What he lacks in "smarts" he makes up for with "sweetness"! Another reason they are “man’s best friend”.

A friend had had cancer removed from his back, yet the dog hit on that spot. The doctors assured him the cancer was gone. The man trusted the dog more and insisted more testing be done. Sure enough, they found cancer cells deeper into the tissue. Yeah, animals are simply amazing.
