Terry had a turn on saturday night,sunday took him to the vet,where a lump was found on one of his testicals! Of more concern was a mass around his spleen! So monday back to the vet for more opinions and a booking infor ultra/scan and chest and heart x rays. The mass was confirmed and today he went under the knife and had his spleen and testicals removed,the concern was as to weither his heart would stand up to it,he is going on 12 years old.All went OK and within 1 hour he was barking and wanting to go home.The vet is of the opinion that the spleen tumour was benigh,but we wait for the results of testing. Photo of Terry about 3 hours after surgery,fingers crossed the little man will be ok. Image Unavailable, Please Login

There's a mastiff up here that rides around in the back of a Hi-lux. The owner eventually put a canopy top on it and it became his kennel.
Yep, the breed is call Labradopoulos. Hey! Truer words have never been spoken! Hehe, awesome. There was this Mastiff here once that used to ride in the back of a little Suzuki 4WD trayback. When the dog moved from one side of the tray to the other, you could see the weight shift. It looked like the ute was going to tip over. He was a BIG dog that one!!
Best wishes to Terry... poor little guy's had a lot to put up with - dragged around in old pommy machinery...
I can't help but note Terry won't make direct eye contact, and appears very, very angry about you taking his balls away. What's he going to play with now?
Terry! Here's to a fast recovery. Get well soon! ROOFFF!! Looks good in the photo RB, take good care of him. (been through a similar thing earlier this year with one of my pets....they bounce back)
