Thanks again for all the helpful advice everyone!
We just heard back from the vet this morning and the toe lump is not cancerous. It is inflammatory cells so they are not sure what it is but I am so relieved that it isn't cancer! He is scheduled for amputation tomorrow. I am really nervous. I know he will be fine but I'm still nervous for him. Going to go get a bunch of carpet runners before he comes home.
This site is so helpful! I never realized how many things are available for tripawds!
Greatfuldanes I am glad your Dane is doing well despite all he's been through!! Is his name Tigger? My other dane also has Wobbler's, degenerative myelopathy and a ccl repair. For your dog to be doing well on three legs is awesome!! I will definitely look into the neoplasene.

That's amazing Zane. He is a brindle and has always been a tigger of sorts. Now that he bounces off his one back leg as though it's a spring- he has truly become a Tigger!
Good luck this week! Did you remember to get a good harness like the webmaster by ruffwear? It will be invaluable in helping to get Sterling to his feet after surgery.
Here's some video that I just made of Zane a few days ago. He is just 6 weeks post amp.
