My mother in law has a mastiff (was going to be the girlfriend to my boy). A month ago her eye became swollen and irritated so we brought her to the vet. They said it's congunctivitis and gave us medication for it. After we ran the course of medication and it didn't improve we brought her back in and they said "well lets do an exploratory surgery, maybe a suture broke from her cherry eye surgery." So we did that. They couldn't find anything in her eye so they took samples of the tissue, we had them sent in because they said "we will be able to give a definite diagnosis if you send the samples out." The results came back a week later, and all they could tell us was that "it was foreign body related inflammation." They gave us an anti-inflammatory and told us to come back in a week. So we did and saw no improvements. We did our research and suggested that maybe there was an abscess behind her eye. Today, they took her into surgery to drain the abscess. They said they didn't get much but "it's still possible that's what it is. Or it could be a tumor." Her eye is protruding, and about ten times more swollen and gross than before the second surgery. The glands on her neck were swollen this whole time and now the ones by her chest are swollen. They've done a full blood work up and found nothing. They found nothing in her blood suggesting cancer, infections, or diseases. WHAT ELSE COULD IT BE?


We are at loss and most likely are going to have to euthanize her. We just can't justify leaving her in pain just because we don't want to lose our beloved girl.

Please pray for her guys
