More: He’s a great dog, but like a lot of Scotties he tends to be a loaner. He was 8 weeks old when we got him. We found a small bump on his left rear foot just above his toenail in early December. The vet had to remove his toe and it was Melanoma. So far there isn’t any sign of it in any other part of his body thank god. We are getting him the Melanoma Vaccine. He has had 3 of the 4 so far, and all is well. Please pray for our precious boy.
