Just logged in today, Sorry to hear about Ellie, thoughts are with you and hope everything goes o.k. for you tomorrow, will be thinking about you both.
Ahhh, it's so sad if she has but unfortunately cancer of there in both humans and dogs is hard to deal with.
Our Rough Collie only showed signs for 2 weeks and that was only a rapid weight loss. Our vet was at a loss for the 2 weeks and it was only when we demanded a second opinion through the PDSA that we found out the diagnosis. My parents hadn't even got back home when they advised them.
Kay thinking of you at this sad time and think of all the good times that you had together.
