Today was Butt Cancer removal day for our best girl Sugar! Earlier this summer I noticed a small lump by Sugar’s vulva/rectum area. Originally I thought it was probably a melanoma, but the longer I kept an eye on it I started to think otherwise. It would break open and bleed everywhere, seemed pretty superficial on top of the skin, and kept growing (it had grown a bit more since the 3rd picture). After consulting a few vets, Dr. Ashley wanted me to get it looked at asap. Today she came out and removed what she could of it. We have our suspicions of squemous cell carcinoma, but are sending it off to be tested. Long term treatment will depend on what type of cancer it is. This is not a normal area for squemous cell, but can happen here. Sugar’s not going to love the daily care of this but I’m so glad we got it taken care of!
