Thank you all for you have done over the years, you were all a great help when I first brought Butt home. I have not been active much lately, but did keep up by reading regularly. It is so very sad that things have come to this. Take care of yourself and all your pups and maybe I'll catch up with you some where else.

Medical Conditions & Diseases / lipomas bleeding?
« on: April 30, 2009, 12:56:41 pm »
Butt has a large lipoma on his back. He has been to the Vets twice to have it drained, the last time was 10 days ago. Tonight my 14 yr old came to me and said I better check Butt's bump. I went to feel it and it is more raised up and is a blood color and you the hair all around it is bloody. I tried the Vets office and they were closed for the night. Question- should I wait for the Vet to open at 8am and call them or should I take him to the ER Vets tonight?

First off thank you all for your replies. Right now we still don't have any answers from the dog warden, they still haven't come out.All we can do now is wait and see what they say and go from there.

We did find out there were actually 4 kids total outside playing in the yard next door. Two of the kids knew Pogo so they actually called him over to them.From there we don't know what happened.

As far as him growling at the kids before, it was never what I would call a mean growl.Both times I witnessed it happened Pogo was sleeping and one of the kids stood on his tail.He tried to get up and couldn't so he turned and growled at them.

Sorry this is long, but I really need help.I posted about a month ago about adding Pogo( mixed breed 80-90lbs) to our family, but was worried about how to introduce him and Butt since Butt isn't found of other dogs, besides Tub.We have worked on and off with them and Butt is better then he was, but not where I was comfortable enough to bring Pogo here. Well fast forward to yesterday and now life is so messed up.

John was at his house having some work done around there and the people working left the gate to the back yard open and Pogo got out and bit a 7 yr old in the face, she had to have 22 stitches. Nobody saw exactly what happened, but this came out of the blue. Never would we have ever expected this from him. My 6 & 2 yr old nephews and 4 yr old niece play with him all the time, never any problems. If they do something he doesn't like he has always gave them a little growl to say that's enough. I have taken him for lots of walks and have never had any issues with anyone we have met. I've taken him to the pet store and no issues there either. I'm dumbfounded that this happened. The dog warden has not been out to see him yet, but John went to their office. The lady there said he wouldn't be out to sleep for at least 10 days if they were going to do it. For now he is home until the dog warden comes, then we will see if they take him to their facility. The lady also told him that if they decide he doesn't need to be put to sleep, that he should still think about it, because once they bite like that they are more likely to again. Needless to say we are very concerned about my nephews and nieces and what could happen. So please any advice, thoughts or opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Both Butt and Tub twitch when they dream.Tub moves his feet in the cutest way. They only time I wake them when they are dream running is when I'm trying to sleep and they are repeatedly kicking me.

I didn't realize it was on, but at least I have it set to record now so I don't miss the working dogs.
