Prayers for our dog

[Beach Runner]

Our beloved three-year-old standard poodle, Pepper, will have surgery on Thursday to amputate her toe. She probably has squamous cell carcinoma in her toe, fairly common in black standard poodles, as well as black giant schnauzers and black labs. It will take some time to get the biopsy back. Hopefully, if it's cancer, it hasn't spread.


Her symptom was a cracked toenail. It wasn't healing properly and she was licking her toe a lot, so I started doing some research on the Internet. BTW this is rare enough in the general dog population that most vets don't suspect it because they've never seen it.


Please pray for Pepper and us. We are really, really upset.

We'll be thinking about her. Being a father of four legged kids only, I know where you are and would be doing everything I could, too.

Bless your heart! We went through exactly the same thing with our nine year old golden two years ago. I will be thinking of you.
