This has been a rough day. Last night I noticed our beloved little rat terrier had a big bump on the bottom of his chin. Of course I became concerned. We took him to animal hospital (not his regular vet, but they were very comprehensive). They did some x-rays. Best case, he has a bone infection. Worst case, bone cancer (but vet said that is unlikely). The other option is a disease called craniomandibular ostepathy. His jaw bone could over grow and potentially cause him to not be able to open his mouth. I just love this little man so much. I don't know what I would do if we lost him.
I am physically and emotionally exhausted and I want to eat every thing that is high fat and high sugar for comfort. Just a bad day all around.






I hope he gets well soon. Keep us posted.
