They were tender enough that he let me know he didn't want me touching them. No other symptoms. I never pursued it, because it seemed inconsequential. The were symmetrical on each side of midline, I think. He is gone now, and he did have one weird illness where he just lost weight and was intermittent lame, and when they drew his blood, his liver numbers were astronomical. They asked if he could have gotten into some kind of poison...um, no. We did 10 days uniprim antibiotics, he improved and lived another year. Very strange, but thought this info might help. Hope Hank is well by now. :)Netherfieldmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14260647159580710835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-91018834226542889402013-01-27T22:54:07.833-07:002013-01-27T22:54:07.833-07:00Glad it's working!Glad it's working!Lori Skooghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03458010787337492501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-5107896095487138642013-01-27T22:31:56.789-07:002013-01-27T22:31:56.789-07:00Hank is turning you into an everyday MacGyuver!Hank is turning you into an everyday MacGyuver!Boss Mare Eventinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08039910692009593158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771557388430184941.post-87619969285732470762013-01-27T20:01:57.054-07:002013-01-27T20:01:57.054-07:00Just googled Bosco.
