Chance has had a bacterial infection in his nose that will not go away. He has green tumors too. He shoots food and water out of his nose and aspirates all the time. He was put in the hospital a few days ago for IV antibiotics. He is acting like he feels okay for now, but just over night two large lumps appeared on both sides of his neck next to his jaw bone. they feel liquid feeling. The funny thing is, none of the two vets and the one university i am using know what is wrong with him.
one thinks its simply a foreign body that make soft tissue damage.
the other thinks its some rare paralysis
and one thinks its cancer.
the green tumors in his nose are so far back and his nose is SOO swollen that they cannot biopsy them.
What makes this hurt the most is that he still plays. his tail still wags, he has a great appetit and acts like nothing is wrong. that is until he takes a moment to sneeze out blood and puss, then he is lethargic for only a couple of minutes. and after that here he comes again bringing me a ball to throw.
sadly we think he will have to be put to sleep. That sounds unreal to me after just playing Frisbee with him an hour ago.
