My white sheperd "Moon" (11 years young) was diagonsed with bone cancer (tumor on his front elbow) when I was in my 3rd round of A/C. They said that normally they would remove his leg where the tumor is, but his back legs are not good due to hip displaysia so he is living with the tumor on his elbow for now. He still has a good appetite and still wants to walk around the block and play with his toys. We know the time is short for him but do not think he is in that much pain. I feel for your pain with your dog and mom, you are not in this alone.
