My Beautiful Beloved Brownie was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma on February 26, 2019. With all odds against him he lived an additional one year and eight days with amputation, love, and prayer. I was honored to be his mom, and I have never been so proud! He will live forever in my Heart!

'Sit..okay where's my cookie? Now you want me to lay down?? What is wrong with you? Where's my cookie? Oh no! Not again! Sit...lay down...sit..lay down...make up your dang mind!! And I need more than one cookie for all these tricks!"
Love this Brownie Dog!❤

It's exercise. He is too smart to do one command, besides it was a big treat. Lol, he earned it! Before he was a tripawd at the end I would say "who's your mama" and he would paw me, but I haven't tried that lately. The other day he found a bush he really likes and tried to hike his leg. He figured out that doesn't work anymore. Fell flat on his face! I felt bad but it was kinda funny. He was on the grass.

He'll learn to squat. Funny thing, all three of my 4 boy pups squatted. The only one that didn't was my pig headed chihuahua, lol. He lifted his leg on everything!! The day I brought him home from the shelter he lifted his leg on my ankle🙄😯🤣🤣🤣 I was officially adopted❤❤❤

Brownie update.
Appetite awesome. Having stool issues. Starts inside and finishes outside. It's like he can't control it. Any thoughts?
Attitude and energy good. He had a chest xray done because he is hacking a little. Radiologist was out so results tomorrow. They said the spots they saw could be old dog scaring or he could have bronchitis.
So we are anxious. Will know tomorrow. Hoping for the best, but preparing for the worse.

With his overall attitude, eating, drinking, etc going really well, I wouldn't think this little "bump in the road" would be anything to be too concerned about. Are his stools "normal"? It's just his...er..."presentation " that's off?
As an older dog, he may have weakened anal// sphincter muscles, maybe?
Anyway, not real insight to offer. So yes, run it by his Vet.
And, for whatever it's worth, old dog "scarring " or vague spots are not an uncommon thing at all to show up on xrays.
Hugs to sweet Brownie😊❤
