Max is out of surgery and he did well. The surgeon said it all went as planned. What a relief! We can probably visit him tomorrow evening if we can arrange it and then take him home Friday evening. The surgeon is going to send what he removed (teeth and bone) to the lab for dissection. If the dissection shows the surgeon got "clean margins" then Max is essentially cancer free. I am not totally sure what that means long term, but we are cautiously optimistic and we are sooo happy the surgery is done and we can focus on recovery for our big boy! Thanks to everyone who sent well wishes and positive thoughts our way!!! This photo was taken last weekend at the family reunion. Max had just finished swimming for the day and was chillin out on the deck.

Ohhh, that's a happy puppy! With a beer, of course. I'm glad the surgery went well, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they got everything!
Great news, Ingrid! Glad to hear the surgery went well for Max. Here's hoping his recovery is quick and the lab comes back with good results. Sending lots of good wishes . . .
Love, love, love that pic! :)
Thanks to both of you! Max is doing great here at home. He's got a big appetite (of course, he's a labrador!) and getting lots of loves :-)
So Max is a light beer drinker. Hmmm..
But of course. He has to watch his figure for agility.
