Yea once again for fatty tumors!!!!

 

Riley has a few - and one is the size of 1/2 a tennis ball -

We wanted to get them removed but apparently they will just grow back faster so I started searching the internet and it says fish oil can help to shrink the tumors....She's been on it for about 4 months and there is a noticable difference in a couple of them so I think I may be on to something...The fish oil is great for dogs so I will keep her on it and hopefully they continue to shrink.

Beware the first few weeks might be rough for you - makes dogs a bit gaaaaaasssssssssyyyyy!!!!!!!!

 

 

PS  Riley wanted me to add that fatty tumors don't come from chicken strips and ice cream.

Rhooohooooo!!!!!!!  I love false alarms - well at least compared to real ones.

Gerry has been a tripawd since 12/16/2009.

He was a shelter dog with a mysterious past and an irrepairable knee injury.

Videos and pics of Gerry's pawesomeness can be found at: http://gerry.tripawds.com

Not nice to scare mommy with fatty false alarms, Miss Sylvia.  We must find you a new kind of entertainment.  Glad it turned out to be nothing to worry about.
