Oncology Case of the Quarter: Boudreaux

Boudreaux is the sweetest boy!  He is a 6 year old Scottish Terrier.  In February of this year he developed diarrhea. His signs did not improve with antibiotics and when he was rechecked, enlarged lymph nodes were felt.  The lymph nodes were sampled (aspirate) and unfortunately the cells retrieved revealed lymphoma. He was referred to FVRC for further workup and to discuss treatment.  Boudreaux's family decided to go forward with treatment and he was started on chemotherapy.  He initially was slow to repsond - but we did find the best drug for him Adriamycin (doxorubicin).  He has tolerated the treatments very well!  He is in remission and feels great.  He was given his last scheduled treatment on July 20th and now we will just monitor him monthly for problems!  His family is so happy with how he is feeling!  We are all so thankful he has responded so well!  We hope you enjoy his photos!
