So the surgery has been rescheduled for Wednesday am now.
We had her left leg checked before we amputate her right and the found some unusual areas on the X-ray. So those were sent off to the radiologist and everything went on hold till we heard back from him.
Went to pick up Ziva and the radiologist called while I was there. He said that everything is good and the questionable area was because she has been using that leg more than before.
Sooooo I get to do this one more night, no sleep worry etc. but the good news is her lungs are all clear and at least we know for sure and didn’t make a huge Mistake.
So I guess tomorrow Ziva will join the Tripaws nation.

A journey with my Rottwieler and cancer
I am sorry they put it on hold but better to have things checked out then find out later that it was something bad.
Good luck tomorrow.
So sorry! But YEA for Clear Lungs!
Thanks guys.
The title might be a bit strong but I’m very grateful to have Dr Allen on my side. If the worse case scenario had happened we would have amputated her leg for no good reason.
Clear lungs are awesome and her blood work was showing very good signs. So I’m feeling much better about tomorrow.
Ohhhh yowza! I’m really sorry but yeah better to be certain. Again, it sounds like your vets are GREAT! Take comfort in knowing she’s in really good hands and that now you know exactly what to expect on surgery day. Hang in there!
The title was perfect!!! In fact, not really “strong” enough for what you just went thru!! Completely crazy!!
I made a comment on your forum post too.
I DO like that, with the clear xrays, the “good leg report”, you are feeling more confident as you go forward.
Hugs to all
