She's a 10 year old Jack Russel mix and she seems to be doing very well after about 6 weeks. The cancer was well defined so the vet was able to get most of it.
I've been weighing the options and right now I just want to keep her healthy and happy for as long as possible. We considered radiation but the cost is enormous and it would mean a months stay at the oncology center. Chemo would simply make her sick.
Personally I would prefer that she lose the leg. Dogs adapt to the loss very well and at 10 years old she would likely live a normal lifespan without recurrence.
If my friends dog had been my dog, I would have opted for amputation. If it was one of my dogs I would opt for amputation. Chemo -- no... They only found this when she tripped and fell and they thought she had dislocated her knee, turned out to be this instead.
