My 12-year-old miniature pinscher was diagnosed with cancer this week. She has enlarged lymph nodes in her neck, and a biopsy confirmed the diagnosis. We have an appointment with an oncologist next Thursday. Tonight, the lymph nodes feel slightly swollen. Should I move the appointment up? She is eating, drinking, and going to the bathroom fine.
