@GriffinsMom, my girl Lady had a suspected brain tumour when she had a seizure at 13 years of age. My vet put her on Prednisone, and things improved. She was on and off the drug for the next few years until she really started to get worse at just short of 16 years old. My vet said that for some, Prednisone seems to shrink the tumour. Of course, it would depend on size and location. I don't want to give false hope, but you might inquire about it.
Kits: time to UK?

For those on this side who have used the swab kit (I have previously sent blood) how long from the order date did they take to arrive? I ordered them last Sunday (17th) and it has now become somewhat urgent.
-
I don't know how long it takes to get overseas but I got mine in one week from ordering and there was a two day holiday that week. They are very good about getting it in the mail ASAP so I would expect if you ordered on a Sunday, it was shipped on the Monday.

Lisa - i ordered 9 kits 3 weeks ago - got an email last week advising they had ran out of stock. Got an email yesterday saying that orders were posted on Friday. I was beginning to panic!

Thanks Scott! I'll have to chill while I'm waiting for the swabs and the results; time is not on my side. Trust Basenjis to refuse to go along with one's plans.
Have fun swabbing 9 puppies! -
Mine only took about a week to come and the results were up on their website within 2 weeks of me sending it back!
-
If it comes this week, and if it takes 2 weeks for mine, it might just be in time! My own fault, I should have known better than to assume a Basenji would go along with my planning!

I had my results 3 days after they recieved the kit back. But you have to check because they don't send you an email with the results.
