>With all the cancer horror stories out there I am afraid. Sorry to sound
like such a baby.
Karen, I freaked a year or so ago when Monster Pup Simbo popped a similar
lump on his muzzle, having previously lost my Rainbow Sam to Lymphosarcoma.
The slightest thing had me so worried.
Simbo's lump disappeared two weeks later pretty much of it's own accord.
Sounds much the same that your Stevie has, but go to the vet!!! Cannot
stress how important this is! Best and hopeful outcome will be you are
reassured all well!
But worst comes to the worst, the earlier the diagnosis the better!
Have since dealt with lump on Barney's leg and, yes, the slightest thing I
still worry! I cannot say how important it is that the slightest change,
don't think you are being baby, get the vet to check it out! First for your
own peace of mind, does get scarey sometimes reading the posts, but very
important that if something does go wrong you get in there and get treatment
fast!
In the meantime, sure that Stevie will be fine,
Biggest Berner Hugs!
Jean, Sunny, Simmy, Barney and the Gang

I have broached this subject before. My berner pup, now 14 weeks, wakes
up and begins barking and crying at 2AM. I am not what you would call a
late sleeper and am usually at work by 5AM. My wife and I have a sysytem
where she takes her out later at night and then I would take her out at
4AM. This was our plan, now it seems like a fantasy.
Every morning like clockwork she starts barking. We live in a condo so I
do not want her to keep barking. At first, when she was 10 weeks old I
would rush to put on my jacket to take her out. I soon learned going out
whats the last thing in her mind. When I try to take her out she lays on
her back and wants to be petted or play.
We have since set up her crate to be like an enclosed den at night. That
worked for a few nights. Now I just get up and talk to her at 2 AM and
give her a little water and try to get another hour nap on the couch.
This seems to work fine. Any suggestions? Terry Bering

I'm surprised that you don't seem to be getting any responses to this yet,
as I expected the experts to jump in with a quick response. I can only
assume people are responding through e-mail, but just in case, I thought I
would post the answer to your question.
I'm not an expert, but I can tell you that, as bad as chocolate may be for
your kids, it is far worse for your dog. Chocolate contains a chemical
called theobromine. This stuff is toxic for dogs, and potentially lethal in
sufficient quantity.
You can read more information about it at
http://www.supervet.co.uk/dog/chocolate.html or
http://www.vetheart.com/choc.html or
http://www.vetref.net/articles/_articles/chocolate.html.
Funny thing is, I actually have a book on dog breeds which suggests
chocolate as a good treat for dogs. Luckily, I knew before reading this book
that chocolate was very bad so I never gave chocolate to my dogs. Now, I
ignore all the advice in that book, and just look at the pictures of all the
different breeds of dogs.
...Mike
