Suck it up … a tumour-depleted Patch has a post-operative check-up with Professor Geraldine Hunt, centre, and assistants Nina Lorenz and Natasha Burton.

This operation on the dog was NOT cosmetic. If my dogs needed this kind of surgery at this time of their lives (one is 7 and one is 4) I would pay the $3000 for this operation.

Did I say it was cosmetic? My only consideration would be the age of the dog. But I do not know the life expectancy of this breed. 12 is getting up there for most dogs.

And his owner is likely to continue to overfeed and underexercise him.

Oh "Patch."
Thought it was a story about that RI Kennedy representative getting lie-brosuction, and he disappeared..

That dog's got better healthcare than I do.

"Thought it was a story about that RI Kennedy representative getting lie-brosuction..." LOL...I thought the same thing, except that it said 'liversuction'.

His problem was not obesity, but fatty tumours.
Emphasis mine.

We dog owners and dog lovers would do that. The rest would not understand.
They would if they had someone who overflowed with enthusiasm whenever they came home and forgave them everything they ever did to hurt, even stepping on a paw. :-)

Is there a freeper word for "drive by posters" who post without reading the article? Just curious. Thanks for reposting what should have been read the first time.

Three of my Ibizans have had fatty tumors and they were NOT overweight by any means.
In fact, Jack is what I consider 'skinny'.
[which is the standard for the breed and though I tend to keep them a little meatier than is acceptable in a show ring]
Fatty tumors can just happen, whether a dog is fat or not.
Only one of the 3 has a lipoma in an area which may cause her problems; her armpit.
I intend to ask my vet if it's possible for him do something like this for her since sight hounds are very, *very* tricky to safely anesthetize for surgery.

Actually, to make a Kennedy disappear, you give them an enema or a dose of ex-lax. They're so full
of it, once you clean them out, there's nothing left.
Except, maybe, the pickled liver.

That's odd...it looks like the lady on the left is using the dog as a hand puppet.
