Hi all
 

Had a big scare last night with my male CH. Cohosh - he bloated but we got
him to the vet and got it under control in less then an hour and didn't have
to open him up. 

 

However they were very concerned with the size of his spleen and want to see
him when he is not stressed and things have settled down to do blood work
and to palpate the spleen again. They felt the size could be do to the
stress and bloat as the spleen will engorge during this type of event. But
they also said that there could be a mass on the spleen and that this was
very common with GSD's. 

 

So my question - anyone had experience with this or heard that tumors of the
spleen are common?
