AN 11-YEAR-OLD Border Collie has made a remarkable recovery after major surgery.

Rosie was treated at Amity Veterinary Care in Newton Abbot after her owners noticed she had begun showing signs of not being quite right.

They knew not to ignore the signs that something was wrong and quickly sought advice from the veterinary team.

She was taken in for tests to investigate her symptoms and find out what was wrong.

But what followed came as a shock.

The tests had revealed a significant abnormal mass on Rosie’s liver which measured approximately 15cm across.

Rosie quickly underwent surgery under general anaesthetic at Amity Vets.

The veterinary team carefully examined the affected area and took multiple biopsies from her liver to help establish exactly what they were dealing with.

Since the major operation, Rosie has made a full recovery.

A spokesman for Amity Vets said: ‘It was an understandably worrying discovery for her family, but thanks to their quick action, Rosie was able to receive the care and treatment she needed.

‘It was a big day for Rosie and her family, but this brave girl showed incredible resilience throughout her treatment.

‘We’re absolutely delighted to report that Rosie has made a full recovery.

‘She’s back to enjoying life, feeling happy and well, and doing all the things that make her the wonderful dog her family knows and loves.

‘Rosie’s story is a wonderful reminder of the difference that a caring, observant owner can make by acting promptly when something doesn’t seem right.

‘If you are ever worried about your pet or notice a change in their health or behaviour, don’t hesitate to seek advice.’
