Our boxer/mastiff Bruno has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and the vet said her prognosis was 'weeks'.

However, Bruno seems pretty happy, not uncomfortable or in apparent pain.

Can anyone who's been through this with their dog advise as to what to look for as this horrible disease progresses??

All advice appreciated.

Didn't want to read without commenting, so just want to say I'm very sorry to hear this and wish you and Bruno the best.

Terrible news for you. I guess you try to enjoy what time you have left and at the 1st sign of pain do what is best for your dog.

Still remember my Turbo (a rescue we had 15+ years) who lasted a lot longer than expected after he kept falling, having failed to get up one day we knew what had to be done, he just lay in his own wee and was so distressed by this. Will always be grateful to my dad being at the vets with me, it was hard for us but peaceful for my pup.
