A woman fears her dog could choke to death if she is unable to raise enough money for urgent vet treatment.
Louise Edelstein, 32, from Newton le Willows, was devastated when she was told, last August her rottweiler Shelby has a tumour on her oesophagus. It is one of the rarest form of cancer and is usually only found when it is past treatment.
The devastated owner, said: “The specialist said that I’m really lucky that they ended up doing a full body CT scan because the tumour in the oesophagus is one of the rarest ones you’ll find and usually when they do it’s too far gone to be treatable.
