Even though he was never interested in other dogs...
he was interested in the group of dogs playing there with their parents and didn't growl them away...
Days before I went to another vet for alternatives...he said Lysodren but chances were 1:1.000.000
I have experience in my family of the effects of chemo...and ruled it out...
Same day...I decided not to just give up but search the internet for alternatives...the search went on for months...
Found many alternative treatments to cancer...
One of them was IV vitamin C therapy
Also...giving MSM ,curcumin would help.
Went to a pharmacy store/lab (the one that converted my 30*120mg Vetoryl
capsules to 120*30mg) and explained in a hurry Huskos' story...
She actually gave me for free a bottle of ALA 250mg, one of MSM 1000mg,
Vitamin C 240grms powder and a bottle of Ester Vit-C 250mg
I only paid for 2 boxes of IV-vitC serum (each containing 5*750mg/5ml injections)
Saturday 23rd November I called yet another vet home to get blood sample and prepare the IV...
Husko got 3grms on Saturday and 4,5grms on Sunday of IV-vitC
A short story of veterinary ill-practice, human weakness and animal/dog kindness and strength...

NOVEMBER 2013 part1
I should mention Husko always had a habit of doing 2-4 circles before laying down...
But...it started becoming more and more...
I didn't pay attention at first...but within a week it became 20-30 circles...
and Husko had stopped eating again so i force-fed him chicken breast again...
By the second week of November Husko had an empty look in his eyes and whenever he wasn't asleep he started pacing...
getting stuck in corners in the house...
sometimes head-pressing...
I suspected the tumor had enlarged...
Went to the vets nearby Friday 15th November...
He was given DEXTROSE to up his appetite as i was told...(i now know it was like adding fuel to a fire...)
Saturday ,giving him the 2nd bottle i noticed small head spasms...so i stopped the flow and drew the needle out...
Sunday 16th November Husko got an MRI...
(thankfully i had managed to yet again find someone to take me there and my emergency funds were exactly the price of the MRI, 300 euros)
This were the results...
History
Cerebral syndrome ( cyclic movements, promoting movements, aimless wandering)
No seizures.
Temporalis atrophy.
Cushing syndrome.
Normal adrenal glands at the ultrasound examination.
Description
The study consists in multiple series of T1 and T2 weighted images of the head taken before and after IV injection of gadolinium.
On pre-contrast T2 weighted images, a large well circumscribed hyperintense mass is identified in the pituitary fossa extending dorsally
to the thalamus. The mass measures 25 mm in height, 21 mm in rostro-caudal diameter and 17 mm in width. The signal is not suppressed
on FLAIR. No change in signal intensity is seen on T1 weighted images, but distortion of adjacent structures is noted indicating a mass
effect.
On post-contrast T1 weighted images, strong and homogeneous enhancement of the pituitary/thalamic mass is identified.
Conclusion
Large enhancing mass located at the base of the brain, likely arising from the pituitary gland and extending to the thalamus. Given
previous diagnosis of hyperadrenocorticism, primary consideration should be given to a secreting pituitary macroadenoma/carcinoma.

OCTOBER 2013
I called the original vets to have the 1 month test but they said it's not necessary since he is improving...
I will always regret not demanding it as it would show if it was too much or not......
Husko started receiving Vetoryl 1*30mg morning and 1*30mg night
btw,I had found a job by now as a scooter-courier ,payed by the hour ,but funds were not improved significantly (and were reduced as months went by)
Transport being always a problem, i managed to find a friend to get Husko to the radiologist-vet mid-October ,to check if it was adrenal-cancer.
It was not!!!
It was a sign of relief as I had read most pituitary tumors are benign and don't spread.
He also had another x-ray
(the air-gun shell on his back is just outside the picture and is on the left...the x-ray showing it from September is not digital so i can't upload it).
Since starting Vetoryl in September up to late October ,Husko was slowly improving.
I didn't take him on long walks and thought it was better if he rested as much as possible...but i didn't spend enough time with him petting as i now think i should have...
I had just discovered Game Of Thrones and started watching 4-5 episodes per day...
Being tired from all the turmoil (war of nerves by vets/constant fights in my house/volunteering at a rescue -anyone doing it knows the stress involved-/constant sadness and crying/trying to find a job etc.) most noticeably since the start of summer this is how i escaped all this...

SEPTEMBER 2013
4th September
Managed to find transport by another friend to another vet far from home...she said he is good...
We did perform the LDDS test there...
An x-ray (not the one in my album) showed Husko had been shot in the past and had a air-gun shell in his back...
This messed me up inside...

I must say i was scared to death after reading the side-effects but all else seemed worse or could be not-effective since we didn't know if it was the pituitary or the adrenals by now...
I opted for the Vetoryl 30mg once per day to play it safe...
Husko was still receiving

Ceclor (one week)

AUGUST 2013
The radiologist-vet went on a monthly vacation so i had to wait till the end of the month for Huskos' liver puncture.
By this time Husko was diminished to a peeing/drinking ''machine''...only able to walk for 50-100y tops...22kg (48lbs) and me crying every single day...
His 24th August blood test results were:
SGOT/AST 113,56 IU/L (23,00-66,00)
SGPT ALT 651,84 IU/L (10,00-94,00)

I was noticing every time i gave the cortisol medication Husko was
getting worse...but as most people...i thought the vets know better...
By the end of august Husko was taking 5 Prezolon pills per day...
Until something snapped finally in me and i told the vets I'm stopping cortisol and getting a liver-puncture...
they insisted he had liver-cancer and a liver-puncture would just be a tormenting procedure and that I was wrong to not having Husko euthanized already...
29th of August the radiologist-vet had returned so I finally managed to find transport by a friend to get there...
Results of the liver-puncture were pointing to corticosteroids (didn't specify source)...
I was furious...I was killing my baby with my own hands...

JULY 2013
Instead of improving , Husko slowly got worse.
We opted for a blood test...
June 2nd Results (2nd paper got lost by the vets but they said what's important in this case was the first page)
''Off results''
γ-GT 17,59 IU/L (1,20-6,40)
SGPT/ALT 407,06 IU/L (10,00-94,00)
ALP 249,00 IU/L (0,00-90,00)
They suspected liver cancer...
They suggested an ultrasound but unemployment funds were almost weeks away...
I was devastated...
Husko was prescribed to take
Prezolon 5mg (until we could have results from the ultrasound)
1. 1 morning & 1 night for 7 days
2. 1 morning for 7 days

Day of the ultrasound and urine sample.
Ultrasound Results (in short):
Liver:enlarged
Gall Bladder:normal but with suspended precipitate
Spleen:normal
Kidneys:normal
Urinary bladder:normal
Pancreas:normal
Adrenals:Left normal .Right couldn't be checked
Gastrointestinal tract: normal
Comments: DIFFUSE liver disease (dd: lipidosis, steroids hepatitis, chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, lymphoma)
Urine sample results:
All normal except
Specific weight :1007
epithelial :rare
erythrocyte : rare
I asked the radiologist-vet if he sees cancer & what is the diagnosis ,and he replied ''i see no masses , but i don't give diagnosis ,just the results of specialty (ultrasound & x-rays)''
Ι thought that meant ''no cancer'' so i asked if the liver puncture should be done immediately or next month when funds would be better ,to which he replied ''next month would be fine''...
Postponing it would turn out to be one of the biggest mistakes in my life...

JUNE 2013
It is important to mention sth very important that played a big role in
events to come...I don't have a car, just a scooter and a sportbike
...and this vet-office of Elias ,Dimitri and George is the only one i knew within walking distance of almost 2 miles...plus i had good past experiences ex.Lemmy got neutered there with excellent results...
I told the vet-George that Husko has difficulty standing up and sometimes needs a tiny ''poke/push'' to stand-up.
After checking his joints he asked ''how old is he''...''probably 10yo'' i said...
He diagnosed a very mild form of arthritis and prescribed Husko to take
MEDROL 16mg
1. 1/2 morning & 1/2 night for 7 days
2. 1/4 morning & 1/4 night for 7 days
3. 1/4 mornig for 7 days

Some pictures from 2012
Last picture of 2012
Late December 2012 I lost my job due to the current economic crisis...
Even though i took the unemployment benefit for 2013 , 360euros a month to help support a 4 person (brother working but rarely contributing and mother has a part time job paying next to nothing...father is a lazy prick...) & 2 dog family is very difficult...
I went into depression...spending all day playing PC games and watching movies all day long...for almost 2 months...
Finally got over it ,but no jobs were anywhere to be found for months...
I got both my furbabies checked at the vet middle of February 2013. According to the vet Husko was ''turbo-healthy'' considering his was probably 10yo at the time...

Husko never liked water and thunders.
It was funny and cute how he left the balcony and came near my bed to sleep whenever a thunder struck...
I also remember feeling puzzled seeing him go near a lake and stepping in water ,as he hated being bathed, only to see him appear behind the bushes with a duck in his teeth...
(of course i managed to release the duck and set her free)
One time he lunged at someones face (actually the sandwhich in front of his mouth) and I panicked and shouted hard at him...also implemented the Cesar Millan 'bite to the neck' in order he NEVER does this again...I was scared someone might sue us and he'd be euthanized...never did anything remotely similar thankfully...
btw, first year both were fed 'Bosch adult' then 'Cibau adult' ,all 2012 both were fed 'Orijen adult/senior' (funds improved) and early 2013 'Applaws adult'...summer 2013 onwards is a future story...
On September 19th i took him to the vet and he was diagnosed with erlichiosis...(refused to eat his normal food and only accepted raw Turkey for 3 days...thought he was just getting picky...than on the 4rth day refused anything and in a very bad mood so i took his temperature and it was 42 Celsius...went to the vent first thing in the morning the next day)...all went well after 2 shots (days apart) and a month of Vibramycin (if i remember correctly).
Days/weeks/months passed...going for walks...hanging at the park with some friends ,many times all night long during the summer.
Though I am regretting now and feel guilty for every single walk or even minute of walks not had because of bad weather or being dead-tired from work...
I should mention that 90%-95% of our walks were during night-time after work.
Both finally got microchipped on the 10nth April 2012 and their annual vaccines on the 24th April 2012 (Huskos' last due to age and after rescent research probably Lemmys' last too...).
Of course every 3-4 months a pill of Dolpac was given...

I adopted him May 2011...
It had been 8 years since my last baby died due to kidney failure,
and i was sooooo happy to have a furbaby again...
btw,His fur had been shaved and allowed to grow again ,because it had been matted after 7-8 years in the streets.
This is our first picture together...
and this is his first video in my house same day...
I remember Husko waking me up at 05:00 the next day ,to take him outside to pee......As he wasn't with me for a long time and i woke up abruptly ,i thought i suddenly saw a wolf in front of me and for a moment got a scare...
I was sooo happy being the parent of a dog again after so many years...
Going for walks...
giving his meal&water...
petting his head&neck (if you extended your arm, he poked it with his head and force you to pet his head) ,
our first visit to the vet ,
trying to teach him basic commands...(He already knew to ''sit''...managed to teach him ''down'' and ''leave it'' too...got bitten in the process of the latter too...and as a Husky he listened to ''come'' whenever he wanted though...
playing whenever he wanted ,
sleeping wherever he wanted (he never wanted an actual 'sleeping place in the house...favorite spot was the balcony during the summer) ,
being greeted at the door (whenever he felt like it...many times he was busy with himself or sleeping
.......the simple things we all know and love to do...
***********
A week later I found Lemmy while taking Husko for a walk...
He followed me home...
I thought i would neuter/vaccinate him and give him for adoption...Lemmy being a young devil had other plans...
He would be a handful to most people and I feared he wouldn't find a proper home so...our family grew...
I thought it would be better if they had each other and played...
Actually Husko always was a bit of a 'prince' and ignored all dogs as if they weren't there...Lemmy wanted to play and annoyed Husko all the time...they sometimes played though...playing always stopped when Husko bit&grabbed Lemmy by his ear and bring him to me while Lemmy whined...

Chapter 1
![]() |
This is the first picture we have of him. |
He was found in the city of Larissa by a kind young woman in 2010...
He was 19kg (42lbs) ...and probably 7-8yo
He was being fed there by some people but many were abusive and hurting him.
He had the tendency to eat paper to ease his hunger...
He was 19kg (42lbs) at the time...and probably 7-8yo
He was being fed there by some people but many were abusive and hurting him.
He had the tendency to eat paper to ease his hunger...
Was taken to the vet and diagnosed with heart-worm disease.
Went through heart-worm treatment (2 shots of the medication...the vet said it was a miracle he was still alive) and got neutered.
and finally outside
Was fostered by some good people (the dog the young woman has didn't want Husko around) until he found a good home.
Here's a pic from a foster home...
Was adopted in January but returned days later...don't know why...again was fostered by some good people...
Fortunately there are many pictures of this period in time (i was never a person taking many pictures and i regret that i don't have many many pictures and videos of our life together...)
