So sorry to hear about Rocky. My dog Taz is 11 now and I'm so scared about losing him. I've had a lot of dogs and it's always difficult to lose them, but he is that kind of special dog that it just rips your heart out to think of your life without. I just hope that if it did come time to make the decision I would be able to spare him pain and not keep him alive for myself. At least with our pets we do have that option, difficult as it may be.
As for the expense of cancer treatment, it does indeed vary a lot and depend on how long they think he will need, and yes, you may want to evaluate what results you may get, and how well your pet can tolerate the stress. But they do surprise us sometimes as well! A friend of mine just went through this decision with her aussie, and the dog came through chemo so much better than she expected and continues to beat the odds. --- Mary Jo ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:217732 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
