Sorry to hear the rough news. I just went through this with my 11 year old beloved lab. How are her gums? Good color or pale/white? I had similar symptoms to what you describe and it was a splenic tumor that wound up being hermangiosarcoma. The tumor was causing internal bleeding, hence the white gums. This afflicts goldens and labs. Hoping for a better outcome for Widgeon. All one can do is monitor quality of life and make the tough decision when she tells you its time. Having just made this call one month ago to the day, the pain was unbelievable but tempered by the knowledge that I did the right thing for my best friend.
I am sure she has had a great life.
