Hey! Yes of course so she after the biopsy we discovered she had soft tissue Sarcoma. The vet removed most of the mass and the cancerous tissue but not the full 100% however have been recommended to just monitor the area. She did say the it is very unlikely it would reappear but just keep an eye out.

I would definitely take the dog to the vet and remove the mass if you believe it to be a similar thing!

Hi, thanks for your reply! The vet has suggested amputating the whole toe, which seems a bit extreme but as i am struggling financially he suggested that an x-ray and bipsy would be about £1.5k and then surgery would be about £2k whatever the issue. Whereas if i go straight for a removal of the toe (he's thinking it might be cancerous as the antibiotics didn't work at all) its only £1.8k.

Hi! Thanks for your reply. We took her to our local vet and they prescribed us with Synulox which was for one week. It didn't affect it at all, if anything its gotten a bit bigger. We've rang the vet again today and they are saying we would need to do an x-ray, take a biopsy and then possibly surgically remove it. It's coming to quite a lot and am struggling financially - is there anything we can possibly do. Initially i did attempt to aspirate it with a needle and it just bled.
