**UPDATED SO I CAN TAKE A DAY OFF TO GET SCOOB COMFORTABLE AFTER SURGERY
Hey, most of you who know me, my pets are my life. Got some pretty bad news and just trying to remain positive. Surgery to remove the cancer is on 1st of July and all help would be much appreciated. Scoob has come really far, originally adopted from Weston RSPCA, he’s a super anxious boy and has a tendency to shut down. I don’t know much history, but I do know he was adopted and returned before he came to me. Scooby and Ouro are very much adopted brothers, and are very codependent. Today came as a bad surprise, obviously. I feel like I hadn’t even considered there were problems with both dogs at the same time. Lots of tears. I’d really been trying to care for Ouro while he had two huge lumps that have appeared…now there’s some juggling required to plan for the worse case scenario for both dogs. I really didn’t plan on having two dogs with big problems at the same time. The $1000 is for the surgery on the 1st (2 lumps now) the $500 is for worst case scenario. Added buffer to take a day off to get him comfortable after surgery and settled. And so he doesn’t hit/bother Ouro with his cone. Even though he is a baby to me, a dog of scooby’s size (45kg prince) needs a little more medical attention and a lot more anaesthetic. If anyone has interacted with scoob, or if you just get this ❤️ any help is appreciated
This news had been emotionally rough. We’ve been through a lot together Ouro, Scooby, Zed and I. We’ve moved interstate, had a guided - albeit long adoption process, had lots and lots of consistent training for scoob’s anxiety. I’ve even taken the medication route to give him the best opportunity to function. I’ve also never really processed the possibility of even losing both of the boys at once. It just feels very overwhelming and very foreign. Trying to not let my mind race too much and fingers crossed we can get through this on the other side ❤️❤️lots of love and compassion to everyone that helps in advance
