OK Gracie is out of surgery, and doing well, she took the anastesia just fine. The pathology on the tumor will take 7-10 days to come back, I will keep you all posted. Her limping is due to the onset of hip displasia and artheritis, which is common in black labs (as is skin cancer). She will go on Flexerill and some kind of low dose pain reliever for the rest of her life. So all in all it could be worse. All I want to do is leave now and get my baby and cudle and baby her all night. hhmmmmm
On the up side it might be fun to see how Gracie acts on pain killers. She is going home with Tramodol tonight. I expect a wobbly woobly puppy.
