Anesthesia question

We had to take our dog in for xrays yesterday. They had to put her under with anesthesia. She's still walking around pretty loopy. Does anyone know about how long it should last?

anesthesia usually stays in the system for 24 hours. Hope everything turns out okay....

She has a large lump on the side of her neck. We have to take her to Annapolis to a specialist for a biopsy. It actually feels like it got bigger just since yesterday. It's very upsetting.

Was a needle biopsy out of the question? What breed is your dog?

The vet in Pr. Fred doesn't do biopsies. They recommended one in Annapolis that is able to handle a wide variety of these circumstances. So they will probably do a needle biopsy.

We adopted this dog from a rescue place. We were told she is a cockapoo but after talking to many people and doing some research we found out she may be a Sealyham Terrier. But I think there may a mix of several breeds.

Well, she gets her biopsy today. Hope for the best. The lump on her neck has gotten bigger (about the size of a lemon) and she has really slowed down. We're pretty scared about this.

The news is not good. Lexus has cancer. The Dr. did not give a good prognosis for surgery. So we are going to talk and see what we are going to do and just take it day by day.

Thank you and cowgirl. This is the first time I've had to deal with this. I just can't imagine the moment we have to put her down. It's really killing me. It was a big leap adopting her and she turned out to be such a wonderful dog.

We, had to put little Lexus down today. I can't really express how sad we are about this, but also relieved she is now at peace. One day we may adopt again from a a rescue center, but for now we want to honor her memory during the holidays.

Thank you for your quick reply. You're always at the ready to give care and support. Lexus was with us for a little less than a year, but she adopted us with so much fun and joy. She made best buds with our other dog (Roxie). Just the most loving dog anyone could ask for.

Thank you for you kind words.

Sorry for your loss, it is never easy but you did what was best for her. RIP Lexus.:flowers: She knows she was well loved.

Oh wow. Sorry to hear that. We just had to have one of ours put down for a similar situation. You did the best thing. It's weird how it's good and bad all at the same time. :huggy:

So sorry for you and your families loss.... Hopefully, there will be room for another fury friend down the road... There are so many out there without homes these days.
