After several conflicting lab reports (malignant histio, systemic histio,
histiocytoma), Peter Moore of UC Davis found these results on a biopsy from
a lump on Babe's back:
"The results indicate a high grade grade B cell lymphoma of the subcutaneous

Very interesting thread and unfortunately too close to our situation with
Babe diagnosed with lupus. It may have been mentioned before, but I do

My 2 cents from a puppy buyers (PPO) point of view - I figure it is my
responsibility to investigate a PAB (potentially acceptable breeder) to

comes off, it doesn't do much good.
