Hi, My son's dog is a 7 year old male, desexed as a pup. He has been straining to defecate for about a month and yesterday the vet diagnosed him with an enlarged prostate which she told us was 99% likely to be a malignant cancer. We had a cat scan and she said that the cancer appeared not to have spread to other organs or the spine although there is some swelling of the 2 lymph nodes closest to the prostate. Samples were taken under anesthetic and we get those back in about 3 days. At the moment he has no problem walking or urinating but faeces are soft. Last week he was off his food for a couple of days but now he is eating properly again. The vet told us that the prostate cannot be removed on a dog which I find contrary to information I read on the internet. What is correct?

We have a male boxer that had a tumer that was not cancer they said they had to take part of the prostate. Since home he has not been the same. He walks like he's drunk always carries his head to his left side his head Bobs a little bit almost like he forgot how to do things like walking at times he seems to be better we've called the hospital they said well maybe he has a brain tumor the dog has no brain tumor he was fine before the surgery I'm just hoping that after a few days he's back to his normal self I just don't know what would cause the way he's reacting could it be the anesthesia could it be nerves that got damaged he almost sometimes seems like he goes into a little bit of the seizures where one eye rolls up into his head sometimes his gums are white and then he seems to come back to it has anyone gone through this before that can maybe tell me this could be some of the after effects of surgery I just don't know giving him cinnamon in case the anesthesia has caused some issues to clean out the liver of what I've read online if he doesn't get better I know we're going to have to put them down because I don't want to see the poor guy suffer anymore
