We confirmed Rocket had Osteosarcoma on Friday September 19th when the results of a needle biopsy came in. A bone biopsy had been performed on 9/9/14 by our Vet due to a lump on his left front leg and x-rays showing bone irregularities on the small bone in that leg. The result was inconclusive on 9/12 and rather than have our vet try again we scheduled an appointment with an oncologist.
Rocket had surgery to amputate the limb on 9/23 and will start chemo in about 2 weeks after he heals from the surgery.
