Tyson was 11 years old
and surrendered by his owners that were no longer able to care for him - the
option recommended by most was to put to sleep or leave at a shelter.
Lucky for Tyson, he had
someone that was a friend and reached out to rescues to get him help and found
So Cal Bulldog Rescue.
What we noticed first was
the mass on his size that needed to be removed and secondly that he was a
senior dog that really needed help as soon as possible. Tyson went into surgery
for a cyst that the vet estimates weights 25 to 30 pounds. The mass is
'ugly' and been reported to been part of Tyson for a while now, just as he gets
towards the end of his last years with this has it started to affect how well
he can walk and get around.
The what it is and why so
so long there is all secondary for Tyson now. After surgery, he was
placed with forever hospice home for his remaining time.
Tyson is doing great his incision area has
healed beautifully and hair has grown in completely . You wouldn't even know he
was carrying a huge tumor on that side.
Tyson best friend is Cletus a 7month spina
bifida EB. They play and Tyson who is about 107lbs and 11 years old now rolls
on floor and acts like he is a small pup so funny to see. His foster
brother and sister pups love to sleep with him. He is happy and sweet and feeling so much better and lighter.
