| I just picked up my fishing bud from the Vet. Had to amputate a portion of his paw due to bone tumors. Bailey (7 year old yellow lab) has been with me since he could be in a boat. Recovery time is 3 to 4 months. Hope biopsy comes back clean. |

Location: Moon Twp, Pa | I'm sure he'll be cruising in your boat with his ears flapping in the wind by summer. Best of luck, I hope the recovery goes well. |

Location: North Central PA | he will appreciate getting back out with you and good therapy for both. I wish you both many more years together. I have a 13 year old Brit that has been my companion since I bought him. He fishes, kayaks, rides ATV, hunts, traps and sleeps with me. If I am in a boat he is there too. I know his days are numbered but he has been the best retirement buddy a man could ever have. |

| I'll say a prayer for Bailey, sure hope he recovers and lives many, many more years for you !! I have two elderly dogs, one is almost 15 yrs. and the other 14 years of age. Both a huge part of our family and don't want the time to come for them, however none of us will get out of it so I enjoy our time together. |

| Well biopsy came back bad. Bailey had bone cancer and will have to go through chemo most likely. Meeting with oncolgist on Thursday before I leave for PA Musky Max show, Hope they can treat him! Rough time only being 7 years old.
Thanks guys for all the well wishes. |
