I have had Gus since he was 10 wks old now he is 12 yrs old and has a tumor on his head (I call him knothead) he eats and bitches to go for a walk and I am probably being selfish not putting him down but every day he looks at me with those big brown  eyes and follows me from room to room and I love him. I can't kill him (yet) he isn't in  pain but looks at me like he thinks he has done something wrong. he knows...different than a lover  because he gives me unconditional love and I can't kill him tears me up  He's a pit bull but I lied to him he thinks he is a black lab and only bites cookies.  Any advice ? I'm losted on this one. This isn't sex but it is love and we all understand that

Have you had the "tumour" checked by a vet?

Some potential tumours turn out to be simple fatty lumps or infections, or purely benign.

If he's not suffering you have no real reason to put him down, especially when, potentially, the whole thing can be fixed with a couple of snips and a stitch, or a course of antibiotics.

If he isn't in pain and the tumor isn't interfering with his quality of life, don't do anything. When the time comes, swallow your pain and do what is right for him.

There are three kinds of people in the world. Those who can count, and those who can't.

We had our pitbull of 10 years put down before Christmas. She had tumors in her milk glands and was clearly in pain. The vet said the operation would probably not result in a comfortable life afterwards, so with a heavy heart we had her euthanised.

Have you been to a vet? Pits have a very high pain treshhold but of course you know your dog best. If he doesn't look like he's in pain, he probably isn't, but do get him checked out by a vet just to make sure there are no side infections, and to get info on what signs to look for since the tumor is on the head and might possibly cause pressure on the brain causing weird behaviour. No need to put him down yet if he's not in pain.

Dogs are the best, I hope you and he both have many years together.

My only advice is try to keep him happy.

Seek the advice of your vet and don't go doing anything impulsively. If the vet says he needs to be put down, let the vet handle it. If he's not suffering there is no reason for him to be put down.

While you're waiting in vain for that apology, why don't you make yourself useful by getting on your knees and opening your mouth

GO TO THE VET!    It does not sound like he is hurting, and it may be something easily fixable (or even ignorable, like a limpoma).  This is the best love you can give an animal.

I am like Charlie the Tuna.  I don't want women with good taste, I want women who taste good.

Everyone here says the same thing Scotty. Take Gus to a vet and get his/her opinion.
