Dog Cancer

Dog cancer is becoming more and more common among our beloved family members. In the past decade is has become the top cause of death for dogs. This does not have to happen.  With a healthy diet, vitamin and mineral supplements, sunshine, exercise and lots of TLC you can significantly increase your dog’s chances of never getting cancer.

If you just got a diagnosis of cancer or believe you have a sick dog that may have cancer, take a deep breath; there are things you can do to slow the process down.

Types of Dog Cancer

Cancer is a disease characterized by an abnormal growth of cells in the body. Three types of dog cancer are most common.

• Leukemia and lymphoma form in the blood, bone marrow and/or the lymph nodes. Canine lymphoma has become common.
• Sarcomas are typically cancers of the flesh. They develop in connective and fibrous tissue.
• Carcinomas form in glands and ducts.

Conventional Treatments

Most conventional veterinarians recommend removing tumors, starting chemo or radiation treatments right away. They will recommend biopsies and other procedures that cut into the body.  Sometimes, in sick dogs this can cause the spread of cancer cells to other areas of the body. Even simple needle biopsies can cause the spread of cancer cells to otherwise healthy organs.      

 

Natural Attack First

It makes more sense to treat the condition with non-invasive herbal remedies first, then evaluate the results. If the remedies do not help, then use more invasive procedures.  Conventional treatments have major side effects, which may cause other problems.  (Go to real cancer stories for more details)
