food

purina

male

he has like a rash on his chest that kinda looks like pimples and red and his balls have a sore im thinkin the worst never had to help a dog along durning cancer me and the wife arnt looking forward to it if it the case gatta let him be as happy as possible i guess hope i can hunt him as long as he will.

Testicular cancer is not really a big deal, as cancers go. It tends to be very slow to metastasize (spread). Generally the treatment is just to neuter, and the dog will go on and lead a long and normal life. It doesn't generally involve radiation or chemotherapy.
Take him to vet and see if that's what it is.

yea

hope they can do it that easy have to stop pushin him in the hunts make him a pup trainer

The rash and pimple looking sounds like a staff infection, I had a female that got staff a couple of times. Never did figure out how or why. Some good anitbiotics cleared it right up. I hope that is all it turns out to be is some sort of infection.

thanks for the info

goin to the vet at 9 30 tonight let ya know ill bring up the staff thing

good newssss

well 300 later got every test i think possible done and the heart worm the limes and all the shots the skin rash scraped and blood test the vet comes in and says i dunno what the f**** kinda worm he has in his skin ive never seen anything like it so got him on 2 diff meds to clear the infection , the sore and inflamation on his balls not cancer just the infection. he asked where i been hunting him cuz he got it from a swamp its a swamp thing (he said it better tha swamp thing) says no huntin for weeks he said he musta went through briars got a cut on belly or nuts then the infection from the swamp.Guess he must hunt real deep to catch the bohemin swamp fever, lol he let me name it **** should get a trophy to take home to he stood like a champ on his bench he said so 300 is a exspensive entry fee ha

Well, that's certainly good news! (Well, except for the $300 part!). Thanks for letting us know - hope he heals up and returns to normal quickly.
