Barkley's first treatment went well. His second one is set for 2/15. If we didn't know he has a terminal illness we wouldn't suspect it. The only tell-tale sign now is he is a little slower walking up the inclines and he rests a little more.
As you know hemangiosarcoma is called the silent killer. When Barkley collapsed on his morning walk we first thought he suffered a stroke, but the lab work and x-rays proved otherwise. The bleeds in hemangiosarcoma apparently mimic stroke symptoms in some dogs.
