Hey everyone,

I took chippy, an 8 year old standard wire hair, to the vet the other day to get an odd growth inside of his pad to get checked out. During the examination, our vet discovered all of his lymphs were swollen. This was shocking to hear as he has always been a healthy dog and usually only comes to the vet for checkups and shots. After all the test results came in yesterday it was confirmed he had lymphoma, although his blood work came back healthy. The odd mass on his foot is still a mystery, although the vet beleives it to be cancerous, leading m to be lieve Chip has a rarer type of skin lymphoma, but it has yet to be confirmed. He has his first trip to the oncologist tomorrow and we will hopefully start chemo soon! has anyone had experience with lymphoma or this type?  :confused:
