Our son's dog, Jax, was diagnosed with a hemangiosarcoma tumor. It came up really fast and Brandon really can't even get his hand around it. When he stands, it's not as noticeable, but he was laying on his side the other day and Brandon saw it protruding from his side. He immediately rushed him to the vet who drew some fluid out which was all blood. It is a really aggressive form of cancer of the blood vessels and surgery, chemo and radiation are the treatments. It frequently returns and even if you do those treatments, the dog normally doesn't live long.
Jax is 12 and has really bad hips requiring pain meds. They have decided not to do anything. Please keep son Brandon and his family, including 5 year old Brynlee and Jax in your prayers as they try to make Jax as comfortable and loved as possible in the weeks ahead. He was a rescue and is a very loving dog.
