Thank you for the love, Zhar

I had such a fright the other day. While I was playing with my Doberman, Zhar, I suddenly noticed a sinister swelling around his abdomen which wasn’t there before.

After a prompt visit to the veterinarian, followed by several tests, my worst fears were confirmed. Zhar, at four years of age, has been diagnosed with a chronic liver condition which would worsen over time.
