at this stage in his life, I do not feel that surgery is the best option for him. What else can I do to treat the cysts.One person has stated that they might be cancerous, when the other person did not. What is the best treatment for my pet.

You have to do research on the cysts and the best treatment. There are few Internet sites talking about that and most of them suggest surgery and castration. However, the vet would be your best answer. It's easy to tell you to consult with your vet but the fact remains that none of us practice animal medicine. Please consult and good luck

the best treatment would be neutering him and having the cysts removed if possible and biopsied. if your vet feels that surgery is a good option for your dog, then do it. your vet should also run preanesthetic bloodwork on him to make sure. there is not another way of treating this.

Peri-anal adenomas. That is usually what they are on older intact male dogs. And usually they not are cancerous in males. If in spayed females, they have a greater chance of being cancer.
I would see the vet and get them checked out. The only option may be tumor removal and neutering!!

Dogs have an anal gland there which becomes infected when blocked.My Labrador had this and was operated on twice but it turned cancerous and he died

You need to discuss this with your vet.
If you think your vet is wrong, get a second opinion from another vet.
