    Unfortunately he has been diagnosed with Leukeamia. Its untreatable, and im devastated.
    His steriods have been increased, to make him comfortable.

    Sorry to hear that ihateyes.:( One of mine died of haemangio sarcoma a couple of years ago aged 10.

    Try to enjoy your time together and make him comfortable as you can.

    He only has weeks to a few months... so its enjoying every day with him just now.

    We were meant to go to London at new year, but we have ditched that.

    He is going to get extra spoilt in the time he has left, so the odd wee special meal... like last night... steak pie and beans.

    My Photographer friend came round to the house yesterday, and took a lot of snaps off him!

    thanks ppl

    That's the best way...spoil him rotten while you can. Big hug to you...I know how very hard this time is.

    Steak pie and beans sounds great ,my dogs last meal was six sausages and an ice-cream :) , give them what they like at the end is what I say. Hope your last weeks/months are packed with fun.
    Yep...still at it, working out how to retire early.:D....... Going to have to rethink that scenario as have been screwed over by the company. A work in progress.

    Wee update on my boy....

    He is still having a good quality of life.... just the steriods make him so hungry....

    We did have a scare a few weeks ago when a discovered blood at his bum... after a dash to the vets turns out he ruptured his anal gland, rather than something wrong inside. So the vet kindly squeezed the other gland!

    We both cherish every day him, and he is still being pampered big time!
