Monday Mischief: Back to the "New" Normal

If it's Monday, it must be time for mischief! Actually, anytime is a good time for mischief, but this weekend Cosmo was especially glad he was "cleared" for mischief making.


After undergoing surgery to remove a lung tumor, Cosmo got his staples out on Friday and he was cleared to commence zooming again.  He spent the weekend running in the backyard...


Pondering squirrels and birds...


And strolling with me!


You can see how much he enjoys strolling, almost as much as zooming!

As far as his surgery and diagnosis goes, we did get test results back last week that confirmed the lung tumor they removed as an adenocarcinoma. Unfortunately, cancer also was identified in the lymph node sent off for biopsy, so we are evaluating treatment options this week.

In the meantime, Cosmo is feeling great and his appetite and nose for treats is as hearty as ever.  Please keep pawsitive thoughts coming for Cosmo. And, if you're lucky enough to be attending BarkWorld Expo this October, we'll plan to see you there!

Now, let's see what kind of mischief the rest of our pals are up to!

    Cleared to zoom is good. Yay, Cosmo! As for the treatment options? Well, having just gone through it, I'll just say ... read what you can find, consider Cosmo's daily life, and do what you can reasonably handle in daily life (and budget) for your boy. We have another "chemo" weekend coming up, so we're working hard this week to get ahead.

      Thanks pal! Cosmo will walk beside the stroller until he's "done." Then he gets to enjoy the ride!

    I'm so sorry to read of the "C" word. I'm glad that Cosmo is cleared to zoom! We recently went through cancer with one of our dogs (bone cancer), and, in her case, the chemo treatments had very very few side effects. I didn't believe the vets ahead of time that the side effects would probably be minimal - so I thought that I'd share our experience with you.

    Keep on zooming and enjoying every day together!

      Thanks so much for your note. The vets have said the same thing to me and it's also hard for me to believe. But just like in your case, we're going for quality of life, so the vets will be monitoring closely to make sure side effects are minimal.

      Thanks so much for sharing your journey through your posts. It helps to read what someone else has been through and I hope you find comfort in your words someday.

    Run Cosmo run! Zoom to your hearts content.
