OT Some good news for a change

I just got some good news from the biopsy lab at the
University of Illinois Small Animal Clinic. The lump
under Kipper the Hound's right armpit is a benign
limpoma and so long as it doesn't bother him it need
not be removed.

Woo Hoo !! I'll drink to that and Kipper gets a big
chunk of braunschweiger !

Congrats. Pepper the border collie had a tumor removed last year,
and while it was benign, it's no fun to have to send your pooch to go
under the knife.

You could at least give him a beer, too.

Oh wait ... he's probably been through enough already. ;-)

Two summers ago we noticed Henry wasn't as spry as he normally is. He
had Lyme's D. Some antibiotics and he was fine.

He'll have a chew on his old ham bone in honor of the good news on
Kipper.

Not until this weekend. Kipper doesn't drink beer unless
we're on a fishing trip or SWMBO is out of town. Speaking
of SWMBO being out of town, are you going to San Antonio
for ALA Mid-winter ?

I love ALA Mid-winter, it means beer for Kipper and Pasta
Carbonnara for me. ;-)

You're confused. Thats one of the SOURCES of Budweiser.

I think that might have been a lipoma, but good news at any rate.
Years ago, I had a dog who developed several benign lipomas, and lived a
good long time(nearly 14 years). Braunschweiger away!!

By the way, good news indeed.

Thanks for sharing the good news.

Nah, the only reason for me to go to ALA is if I'm looking for a
new job or to drink margaritas on the Riverwalk, and I'm not looking
for a job.

Oh ... wait ... maybe there is still a reason for me to go. :-)

Mmmmm ... carbonara. :-) So SWMBO doesn't go for the raw egg
thing? I've been eating carbonara since my mom used to make it for us
in the seventies, but I guess we just didn't know any better then. ;-)

I can relate to the food that SWMBO doesn't eat but I love. In
fact, one of my favorites is smoked kippers (not dogs) with purple
onions and English muffins for brunch.

don't usually give any of it to the dogs)
