Abe is having surgery today!

Poor Abe is having surgery today. He sprouted a mole/wort like thing on the side of his snout in Feb. As one of our friends said it looked like a wood tick. When we went to DC the beginning of March we had the vet look at it and it was determined through testing that it was not cancer. They suggested having it taken off sometime this summer when he comes in for a teeth cleaning.

So, we decided that was the plan until this weekend. Poor guy was scratching at it, it got irritated and now it looks bigger so we decided it needed to come off sooner rather than later.

Laser surgery it is and when he is done he will be sporting bright white buckers and will also have some sort of incision on the side of his snout. Just can't wait to get him home! Unfortunately I have a couple bike related meetings tonight, so I will not be there to comfort the little guy. Kris will have to take care of that part. I am sure she will do a great job!
