Linda Shaw Webboard User Reg: 11-08-2008 Posts: 1 Loc: Offline	I have a 5 yr old pit bull. This dog is my best friend and I love him so much. Last week I had to take him to the vet because I found two lumps at the base of his throat. The vet did blood work that came back normal so he was scheduled for a biopsy. This was also done last week in which a lump on his hind leg was removed and sent to the lab. I am waiting for the results. The vet told me it could be 1-gland infection or 2-cancer. I hope to God it is not cancer. Has anyone had this same problem and if so, can anything be done? I can't bear to lose my baby. I have read about a vitamin called Nuvet that some users have said has actually cleared lumps from their dogs. If it is cancer, I plan on getting him treatment. If anyone has any suggestions or insight on how they handled the same problem, please respond to this post. And please say a prayer for my Beau.

Try not to borrow trouble...wait until you get the biopsy results before making yourself nuts<g>. I have had several biopsies done on lumps my GSD has been growing...so far, all of them are benign growths. And, if the worst happens and it is something malignant, they've made so much progress in treating these growths in our canine companions these days! Good luck...will keep my fingers crossed for you... leih
