Cody our Rhodesian Ridgeback was our baby - a gentle giant. He had dozen's of playmates over his lifetime and everyone, grownups and children alike loved him. It was so devestating to all when he passed away. He weighed approx 70 kilos and 33 inches at the shoulder.
Cody started limping after a regular afternoon walk and thus promted us to see our vet.
We thought this was the onset of arthritis, as he was a very big dog. We were not to know that he had Osteosarcoma (bone cancer) in his right back leg and it was further along than we knew.
Our Vet, Peter, said he was not sure whether it had spread to the lymph nodes and he had 2 weeks to six months to live. This really devasted us (my husband and me) us as we did not think that cancer would come to our baby.
But our thank's go to McDowell's treatments which I know helped Cody over the few months he had left as he was not in any pain and had quality time being spoilt and loved by all. I recommend these treatments of Maritime Pine Bark with the Osteosarcoma program to any animal.
Cody was our companion, best mate and all around buddy to my husband and me and we were blessed to have him in our lives. He was loved by so many people.
