Hi. I am new to
this group and have been enjoying reading all of the emails of the last few
days, but decided not to join in until today, I have a question about growths on
eye lids. I am sure most queries have already surfaced at least
once before but here goes with this one: My 9 year old Pyr Toby has had
this small growth probably getting bigger over at least two years, twice
mentioned at the vets we determined that it wasn't giving aggravation or
problem to his cornea etc. Just this week we notice that there is another
little extra part that has grown, now I am worried that it might have to be
taken off, my reluctance is more about his age and the anaesthetic effect. He
has been a very healthy boy all of his nine years, most visits to the vets have
been for shots up to this point. His litter brother, a show dog, had one removed
about a year ago for asthetic reasons and I believe that they take as much
from under the growth as you can see above. I hate to put him through
the whole surgery thing but I probably know what's the best thing to do but
would be interested to hear of others experiences with these growths. Thank
you.
