Meet HONDO & BENTLEY - Adorable Odd Couple!

Bentley, age 5, and Hondo, age 2, are a bonded pair whose NC owner sadly had to relinquish them to our organization due to a a health crisis. She had taken both dogs in from neighbors who were mistreating them and gave them so much love over the last year that both resilient dogs are very well adjusted, obedient and happy! Both dogs are excellent with people, children and other dogs.

BENTLEY, an American Bully mix, came to us with two large pendulous tumors growing from her rear. She underrated surgery to remove them on 12/30 and is doing great now! Biopsy results revealed:

Of the two pendulous masses, while both were subcutaneous mast cell tumors (i.e., under the skin and not OF the skin) with a low mitotic count, meaning they are also less aggressive/less active, the margins on the right sided mass were clear and complete, but the left sided mass had a deep margin that was incomplete. This means that cancer cells were at the edge of what was removed. Because this area is too close to the vulva to cut deeper, we are submitting additional testing on that tumor to understand the likelihood of recurrence, though there is no evidence of spread. As this tumor is likley lower risk, BENTLEY’s adopters will simply need to monitor the area for any regrowth/recurrence (about 15% risk.) In short, given the size and location of the masses, this is overall good news so BENTLEY and HONDO are ready to GO HOME!

To apply to adopt this bonded pair (we will not consider separate adoptions) within a 5-6 hour drive of NYC or their Western MA foster home, head to www.mrbonesandco.org/adopt or email elli@mrbonesandco.org.

Special thanks to our surgeon, Dr. Daniel Spector, DVM DACVS-SA and the SS 2 team at @amcny for tackling BENTLEY'S difficultly positioned tumors and ensuring the surgical site was reconstructed to maintain full function, and to her foster mama, Janet and @sylvesterishelpful for making sure her aftercare was expertly attended to.
