| Old Carlo update as of 9/20 Took Carlo in for another retest since his Platelet count was low last week. Normal for him is a count around 150,000. Last week Carlo was at 106,000 a week after his Chemo pill, and today he is at 107,000. The Vet called the Cancer Specialist and let her know. She said to have another check in 3 weeks the day before he is supposed to get his next Chemo Pill. If it is not at a minimum of 120,000 not to give him the pill, but to bring him back to the Specialty Hospital to be restaged and see where he is at, and what is next. It would be more dangerous for him to get it with a low count, than not to get it. CEENU (LOMUSTINE) is very powerful and is known to do this, and he has been on it for quite a long time. He is still doing good, and went for another walk. You can tell he is slower, but he does not know that he is old, slower, and sick. |

| Good ole' Carlo. What a strong boy, he's been taken care of so well. He's lucky to have such a great family. Carlo is a part of why I've been so interested in Mastiff's as of late. Though they wouldn't fit into my life for a few more years, but I am realllyyy wanting an English Mastiff in the future. Stay strong, Carlo!

Do you know if they can give him a shot like they can with humans to help raise his counts?
