Shaman has cancer

I took Shaman in to a different vet to have his growth looked at and as I suspected, he has cancer. She called it a soft tissue sarcoma. I should have taken him in to get a second opinion when I was told it was a cyst and to leave it alone as it would only come back if the vet removed it. I won't make that mistake again. I made an appointment to have the tumor removed. I hope they can get it all out. Poor Shaman, he has suffered so many problems in his life time.He is only 7 years old. I will do what I can for him. He is such a wonderful dog. I am greatly saddened as don't know how much longer I will have him...   to be continued...............
