Has anyone had a dog diagnosed with Ishemic Dermatopathy?

One of our Great Pyrenees has, by the animal dermatologist. I've been reading up on it. Seems to mostly hit younger and smaller dogs. Nothing about a Pyr. There is a type of it that can be brought on by a reaction to a rabies vaccination. Not what we have here.

They're running one other lab yet to get a definitive diagnosis. Pre-lymphoma is also being mentioned.

Obviously, we are pretty worried. He's 12 yrs old, so we would not put him through chemo. In the past, I've had two other dogs that died from lymphoma.

I'll take his stitches out tomorrow from the biopsy.

Any experience relayed would be much appreciated.
