Sounds as if you are lucky, Judith22, to get a diagnosis before it's too late. I could not see a thing wrong with one of my cattle dogs(aka blue heeler) until the very day she suddenly looked very ill. Bladder cancer again, and so bad the vet put her down. The breed is very prone to cancers of all sorts, like any animal is that is born white. I agree with all those who suggest you don't get a pup yet. Cherish every day with Wolf, a new pup will take attention away from him and that isn't fair to him, I think you'd regret it later. I'm in the same sort of situation really. Only two 14 year old heelers left here, and they have health problems now , and I want a pup, but it's just not going to happen till later.
