I have my dog or my other dogs we had. This is not something that can be hard to take, and Bern, and was superior to a long and into the races for that reason.
I know people who have been there and do everything to give your dog the best life.
They took what the veterans and said she went to see cancer specialists and has all the information possible before making any investment decision.
It is a shame that we in this race, and we hope that whatever your decision on the right side of the dog.
The last thing we want is that the cancer spread and sometimes time is of the essence.
It is not cheap to move there, but if you are an insurance policy, then it will be useful.
I would like to hear from experts in this life and your children the best we can.
I'm sorry, you go through this.
Not sure if it belongs to a breed club Oberland, but if you would the local demand for other owners and breeders, by this I have to call the contactu should talk to someone personally about your worries and fears. It can help you in this difficult phase.
Good luck and enjoy your time with your child.
Each situation is individual. You must weigh your options for cost-benefit considerations. The cost for the dog (the loss of a leg), the cost of the pocket. Benefits such as life-long as the dog if it the operation and what your life will be.
Dogs usually have a difficult time with chemotherapy.
Whatever you decide, decide quickly. Osteosarcoma is progressing rapidly.
I have no face at this point that the owner of Bern. But before you decide to participate in the race I weighed and risk analysis. I tend to be someone who works to prevent the removal of many assaults on the immune system as possible by feeding raw and with a very limited vaccine protocol. My decision that I would, if I may, in his situation does not affect his decision ... So I will not give.
I regret that you and your dog can overtake him.
My dog, Ginger, had osteosarcoma. You need to do anything that will keep your dog in good health, without pain and happiness. Decided after discussion with the veterinarian and the veterinarian, both of you that amputation was the right choice for your dog to try. Most dogs adapt well after an operation like that. As the chemotherapy can be expensive ... but everyone with a dog knows that a price for the life of a best friend.
I never had to deal with it, but have your question for other owners, could be the Bernese able to the leading roles.
Kisses your puppy!
