I wanted to Thank everyone for your assistance, sharing of your experiences & 
kind words when I posted to the list for medical advice-Tumors.  
The outcome for Ben was sad.  The owners opted for surgery.  He was opened up & 
was loaded with tumors on the spleen, liver, kidneys etc.  The ER vet commented 
to the owners "You must live under a power line".  
They didnt comment to the vet but the ironic thing is that they do have a power 
line in the far corner of their yard.  My understanding of hemangiosarcoma is 
that it is not herditary although large breed dogs such as GSD's & goldens are 
prone for it.  My vet describes it as a fluke, no rime or reason for one dog to 
have it & another not to have it.  
Could the power lines be a possiable cause for this?
