Lucky Lu!

Lucky Lu is once more a lucky little boy. A little bit ago, he started having a really hard time breathing. Our vet thought it was Laryngeal Paralysis, and referred him to a specialist. Because he had moments of breathing normally, the specialist could not say for certain what the issue was. We ended up having to put Lucky under and have them go in with a special scope to see what was going on in there. They found a large mass that was restricting his breathing to what they described as a pin hole. 
Lucky for Lucky, they were able to remove this mass. 
The test results have come back and the mass is not cancer so Lucky Lu gets to keep being lucky!!
Lu's first day home from surgery




About 4 days after

Today - 12 days after surgery. Hyper crazy just like normal!

Look at me! I feel great!

Cheers,
Carolyn
