anyone with experience in polyps/colonoscopy in bulldogs?...
Submitted by Bernata and Ang... on December 27, 2011 - 10:48pmjust came back from the vet and Chester is going to have to get colonoscopy. She did rectal exam and found a growth so we are praying it is polyp that can be removed rather than anything more serious.
She mentioned he would have to go without food for 48 hours and get a "cleansing" thing which would make him go a lot. Poor baby, he lives for food, I'd prefer to go through it for him :-(
I am very worried about my boy. We lost Lily last February and I just stop breathing when I hear something is wrong with my baby...
Please keep my boy in your thoughts and prayers...
We are going to find out how and when to schedule the whole procedure tomorrow.
I have never heard of that.....
a colonoscopy on a dog! Who knew.....
I hope that Chester does okay and it turns out to be nothing....
What were the symptoms or why did you bring him to the vet?
Was he scooching his bottom? Our vet thought that Sally had a polyp, but then when I brought her back in for a recheck the other vet who saw her said it was not a polyp. She is very sensitive when I try to clean her bottom area. Was just wondering what your boy's symptoms are and what the prognosis is. Do they remove the polyp?
