We got okay news today. There's been a slight enhancement of the tumor. It's still small. There may be another very faint tumor forming, but the radiologist wasn't sure. If it is, it's small as well. Right now, he's clinically stable. No other concerns. We were hoping for stable or shrinking, but it's not a big change from a month ago. We're staying on the trial, as the vet said it can take a while for an immune response to happen. Fingers crossed he continues to do well, and we can keep the spread down as long as possible.
Hey I'll take news like that, sounds relatively great considering, right? Stable is PAWESOME in this cancer game!
Thanks for the pupdate!!! Really hoppy for Czar and all of you. Let the puppy rearing continue 🙂

Not stable, unfortunately. But only a slight increase. So much better than it could have been. I'm hoping for stable in a month. Maybe even shrinkage. Thanks for always rooting for us.
I was literally holding my breath when I was waiting for tavlrt to show your post. And when I saw "little growth " and the vet said that it may take a little bit of time for the immune system to kick in, that made my day! Yes it could have been worse, and it could have even been better with no growth all, but to get very very little growth Is good news. To me, it sounds like the vaccine is having an impact. And to hear that , grom a clinical standpoint, he looks good, YES! That's not really a surprise though considering how happy and good and fit he looks on the outside!
Such a relief 😁
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
I thought I posted yesterday, but somehow it ended up in cyberspace 
Czar looks great, those words 'clinically stable' really do sound good! Maybe that was not another tumor, could have been a shadow that will not pick up next time. If the radiologist wasn't sure, that really is good and a possibility.
Still fighting the fight, still kicking butt, that is really good news

Happy to hear Czar is doing well! And he so darn handsome and really looks happy too! He is a good big brother!
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!

Thank you all very much. He's been very happy lately. He was so lost without Riot. We all were. It's been just under 5 months, and I still look for him. He hated puppies, but I know he'd be glad that all of us love them.
Wow! The puppy has gotten so big! They both look very Happy!
Riot will always be remembered here, and I know he is looking down and smiling.

I agree, the look on Czar's face has changed to pure joy every time I see him.
I'll bet that Riot didn't like puppies because he just wanted all the attention for himself!

Thank you all. I remember all of your pets as well. The puppies are getting a bit calmer, which is more Czar's speed. He's still doing well.
CUTENESS ALERT!!! OMD! First of all, and I know we all say this, CZAR IS SO HANDSOME!! And clearly a great teacher!!
They watch what he does and then they do as he does!! Seeing them do the doggy roll...soooo cute!!!
Perfect way to start our day! Thanks for sharing the joy😊

Czar is now 6 months post amputation. So far, he's doing well. Xrays in two weeks.
SIX MONTHS???? WOW!! Keep on rockin' your tripawdness handsome!!😎
All paws crossed for continued success!
Now,surely a AIX MONTH AMPUVERSARY calls for some very special treats for Czar. Maybe a scoop or ice dream to wash down his steak? I ver he would have no interest in sharing it with the pips!
HAPPY SIX MONTH AMPUVERSARY CZAR!!!! 👏👏👏
Extra smooches and higs
