Drum roll please

Lottie been to vets, they have taken a sample, they said a tumour and I will know next week if malignant or benign. I am so fearful, trying to be positive. She and Phoebe went into the garden today, they ran around and around, lovely to see Lottie lively again .

Try not to worry Chuck . It will just be a harmless fibroidoema . She's being motherly bless xx

Thank you Danni, I fear becoming a meme person

It doesn't matter where you posted it, we are here to help you Annie.
I really hope Lottie is ok - please let us know as soon as you find out xx

Not milk Jalima.

Sorry I posted this on a fun thread, I panicked and there was no one to tell.

Phoebe is a lovely name Annie. Hopefully Lottie just has one of those lumps, bumps and cysts which older dogs get and will be fine, but it's best to check. A good thing you found it early.

I hope she will be all right, but check with the vet.
Do you think it's hormonal? A mothering instinct now that the puppy is there, could it be milk?

Oh Annie you don't need another worry. It's probably nothing, just a lipoma, but of course you do need the reassurance of seeing the vet. Good luck and please do update us.

Nooo, just tickling Lottie's tummy, she has a lump on a nipple, vet tomorrow, please let her be alright , frightened

Lovely name Annie. Welcome little one, have fun in your new home with Lottie and Annie xx

What lovely news

Thank you x she is a sunny little thing and I am thrilled Lottie just played with her for a little while, in time they will be good friends ?

What a lovely name Annie! Give Phoebe a gentle hug from me please. ?

So pleased for you and sweet little Phoebe (and Lottie, mustn't leave her out!) . I'm sure she will give you lots of happy times.

Woof x. ?

Great name annie. Hello phoebe ?

Hello Phoebe
Lovely new addition to your family Annie

Thank you Auntyflo, if Lottie does get a bit jealous it will pass , she is getting lots of hugs ?

Welcome to Phoebe. Happy days for you Annie with your new playmate. Hope Lottie doesn't get jealous.

The nameless one has a name, looked through family tree,
She is Phoebe ?

Fantastic! Hopefully she'll continue to be that good. I think the presence of another dog helps and Westie's are such confidant little dogs.

Have you come up with a name yet?

Thank you all x

We went to bed about 11.30, puppy explored the bedroom , I took a large cushion in should Lottie get huffy and want it.

Puppy fell asleep in small,laundry basket I had left in the room, flat out. I woke at 3.00am she was sleeping on the big cushion snuggled up to a soft toy. She slept until 8.30 . Lottie still fast asleep on bed,

I can't wait to see a picture of the new puppy. I always wanted a westie but somehow landed up with a jack russell/border terrier cross. Long story .................. but I love her to bits and her name is Lottie.
(Holly is a great name for a Christmas puppy - it was the name of my last dog - a Yorkshire Terrier - bought for me at Christmas!!)
Hope you and your Lottie have a wonderful time with the new arrival

Annie what lovely news to hear you've got your little dog already. We'd love to see a picture as soon as you can send one. I hope Lottie accepted her on the bed with you both

Aw Annie. I'm so pleased for you and Lottie will be fine. Hope the little one doesn't wee on the bed in the night!
