Thanks everyone... Well Gumpy is still being Gumpy. He is still feeling great and is silly as ever. He was diving this weekend in Ohio and was doing great. He still managed his usual 20'+ jumps. The vet is calling me back tomorrow so we can arrange Chemo. His lymph nodes have not gone up much more so we are not worried to much.. Now our big problem is that we are spoiling him a little to much and he is getting a little chubby. opppsssssss

He is now off diving until the new year so I'll have to find a new way to keep him in shape. Now that the snow is here we may just have to bundle him up and go have a few snowball fights.

Sending good thoughts to Gumpy and his family on this Thanksgiving holiday. Having 3 lapdogs (2 of which are terriers) myself, I know these little dogs can do amazing things. Good luck with treatment and glad to hear his spirits are up and you have so many people thinking good thoughts.

Default Update on Gumpy

Well Gumpy has not started Chemo yet. Our new vet was waiting to consult with an oncologist. We finally heard back yesterday about the plan. We have to go to Toronto tomorrow night to see one specialist before the oncologist. He goes to the oncologist on Friday morning. Hopefully they will start Chemo that day as well.. I can say that you can now tell that he is not well. His lymphnodes are huge and he is having trouble breathing when lead by a collar. He is also loosing bladder control. The bad news in all of this is that this will be his last round of Chemo. After this we are out of options for him. Sarah is doing well with all of it. She knows we have done all we can for him. With this round we are also doing something very different. Gumpy will not be diving while on Chemo. We are going to fully crate rest him. The vet things this may be the best hope for him... So right now it's a wait and see for him. We'll know for sure on Friday how things are going to go.
