Hi everyone,

I have not been contributing as much to the forum as I should of late. We have some serious concerns with Dobby's health and I have not been able to focus on anything other than my boy.

I have been looking in and will try to post when I can.

Hi Julie,
That's a bit sad about Dobby, hopefully all will be well.

Hope all comes good with Dobby x

Thank you both - The Dobster is fit as a fiddle on the surface, his usual lovable, spolit, self! However, a scan has shown "something" on his prostate - trying to stay as positve as we can.

Also trying to catch up on the forum, so many posts!

Nice to see you Julie, keeping fingers crossed for Dobby xx

Julie, I do hope he is ok - I feel for you and him, our pets are our family!

Fingers crossed that he gets through this.

Sorry to hear the news...hope it is not as serious as it sounds x

Sorry to hear that Julie, I hope he's ok x

Thank you!!

We took him to the vets 2 weeks ago for a check up after a urine infection and a scan showed a "pocket of fluid". The vet told us, it could be a tumour, but second opinion said it more likely to be an abcess.

He is normal in himself and has even managed to gain access to upstairs - quite comfortable on the bed is Dobby!!

Back to the vets next week and just hoping that my big boy is going to rule my life for a long time to come.

Thank you for your kind words - I just felt I should explain why I haven't been posting as usual.

Fingers crossed that he is ok Julie.

Big hug to Dobby from me!

hope it's positive news Julie x

Fingers crosses for him.

Paul

Dobby has been to the vets today and the news is positive!

Nothing "sinister " on examination and the day to day signs are good. Another check up scheduled for 4 weeks time.

We know there is still a possibilty of "worse case scenario", but so far The Dobster is his normal fabulous self! Please keep him in your thoughts xxx

I was relived when you told me earlier Julie, so glad the news is looking good and he remains in good health.x
