Dog Cancer Vet Advice if Your Dog has Cancer 

I’m so sad. My dad dog was taken to a vet earlier this year for removal of a tumor near his leg. The vet advised all would be well and never mentioned cancer. Fast forward a month the dog is having trouble eating but he drinks water. He doesn’t stop throwing up and you can in his eyes that he’s hungry. I took him to an ER and the cancer had spread affecting his lungs and liver. The doctor advised he needed to be put to sleep because he was suffering. Because we love the dog we did so. I am shattered. This life we hold on so dear can be gone from One second to the next like the wind. Prayers to all.

My dog was diagnosed with a brain tumour when he was 11 I would have done treatments but the vet was very honest with me that with his advanced age chemo probably would not help and just make his last six months more painful. I decided that as long as he was still enjoying his quality of life eating going for walks I would just make him as comfortable as possible. I had to prior appointments to put him down that I cancelled but he was bleeding from the nose and one day he just put his head in my lap and the look in his eyes was so pained it was asking for mercy. The day I put him to sleep I took him to the park and cooked him a steak first then the vet said I should leave because some dogs have spasms or loose control of their bowels but I refused to leave him alone sat on the floor and petted him when he was given the needle he went peacefully just a mild stiffening. He was a wonderful companion I've never even wanted another dog since. I guess they are just here for us to love and care for as long as we can.

Thank God I listen to my gut feeling. My 21-year-old fur baby Coco was diagnosed with lymphoma which is cancer in her immune system. I was told by everyone except from my mom, that she was old, and I need to have her put down. I was even offered medicine to make her comfortable. She wasn't eating and didn't seem okay, but I knew my Coco was STRONG. I had chemo done and took care of her around the clock. She survived chemo, but I was told she had about 4 months to live after chemo. It has been 2 years later, and Coco is very healthy. I have 4 other fur babies and she's the alpha. In fact, Coco walks ahead of my other babies and put them to shame. I fed Coco antioxidant organic vegetables and alkaline water. I avoided sugary snacks because cancer loves sugar. I also took her on long walks because cancer hates oxygen. I also gave Coco back massages and played relaxing music to eliminate any stress. Coco and I beat the heck out of cancer. Coco is still with me, and we cherish every day together. She has a strong support system. She has 4 doctors, in which two of them are oncologists. She has a lot of energy, and you wouldn't think she's 21 years old. I was told by both doctors that they no longer see any cancer, but I still handle her with care by being careful with her diet and avoiding harmful chemicals that can hurt her.

I'm not a vet, but I've often thought the continual application of flea and tick chemicals is a possible cause of cancer in dogs and cats. These are powerful insecticides that are soaked into our pets skin year after year. My dog was totally normal. I applied a treatment according to the instructions. Within 30 minutes he was cowered in the corner of the room shivering, when he was completely normal right before. That was the first and last time I used a treatment. He's been normal ever since then. That was about 6 years ago.

I wanted to thank you Dr. Dressler. My chug, Daisy, was diagnosed with Mast Cell Tumor Cancer on December 20th, 2016. I read your book right away after that, and watched this video numerous times, and because of your book, this video and your dog cancer blog as well me doing my part and prayer, Daisy's still doing pretty well 2 years later now. I am truly grateful to you. Thank you so much. I can never repay the light that you've put out in the world for our pets. God bless you.

it dosent matter where u go to school its the knowledge you gain from that school that determines the difference between a regular doctor and a great doctor

My Handsome Protector Huey was diagnosed today with nasal cancer. He is 12.5 years young & a Chaweenie that thinks he is an Alaskan Sled dog. Watching him struggle to breath especially at night has been devastating. He has seen every specialist which has been so expensive. It’s like everyone charges the min of $200 just to see you....regardless if you have all of the medical records. I am so happy I came across this video. It answered many questions that I had & more. I’ll be getting this book ASAP

Ordered the book 10 minutes ago then I find this... I lost my 1st dog to hemangiosarcoma, and my second is undergoing spleen removal surgery tomorrow for a 2.7 cm splenic tumor. Crossing my fingers that it is benign...

I wish I would have known this 2 years ago when our dog was diagnosed with stage 5 lymphoma. This man is amazing. I am changing our new dog's diet immediately. Unfortunately our dog died shortly after diagnosis. If I had known this back then, I am sure she would have lived longer with quality to her life. She was only 6 when she died.

Buddy is my best friend, he has oral cancer. I am devastated. I can’t see living without him. He had an operation to remove as much of it as was possible at the end of November but it is back and bigger then before.

My dog was diagnosed with skin and breast cancer on July 27 , in the past several weeks I have been using several protocols including b17. I have been taking photos, her toots have decreased to less than half the size over the past 8 weeks😀 no surgery,chemo or radiation!!!! So happy!

Thank you so much Dr.Dressler!

Oh my goodness. Thank you Dr Dressler for going out of your way to think outside the box. Their goal always being to help❤️

Excellent video with lots of good advice for people whose dogs have cancer -- or want to avoid cancer,. My dog has cancer and I'm a holistic dog care author.

This is a great video, I must share. Life quality is so important for our furry friends and for us humans too. Thank you, thank you..... I will get your Cancer Survival Guide. Best regards!

Love it, particularly Psychoneuroimmunology area! I’m getting his book!

This veterinarian is right on!

This is a great and informative video. Thank you Dr. Dressler for your work. And I want to especially thank James Jacobson for a brilliant interview. As I'm watching, a question would pop into my head (as I'm sure they did for alot of viewers) and miraculously James would ask it. He got right to the important subjects and queries without any self-promoting blather. Thank you so much James, the service you provided for your viewers in this cannot be overstated. Best of luck to everyone who view this because we all came here for the same reason. They are better than people...

What an awesome doctor!!!

I totally agree and wish I find a vet like Demian. My dog has been treated with homeopathy at 5, having grand mal seizures, he never had a seizure since! He now is in is 15th year..I know I have to go to a vet but dread the local surgery;I feel unheard wanting to use natural remedies as much as possible.Drugs do have their place;lets work together for the best outcome for the animal! i may go there for a diagnosis, then find my own treatment plan..and I do energy healing on him,it works well ,

That was so inspirin! My dog was diagnosed last week with cancer, we search to go over that stuff.She is 13.

Great interview and advice as well as introspective questions provided by this very knowledgeable vet. I wish this same blog regarding cancer existed for felines!

Excellent talk. My dog has cancer and I am really debating whether to battle it or just give my dog quality of life. The cost is also a major problem. I have a few days to make up my mind. I will download the book.

Your a brave dog hero.

My 3-year-old min pin has cancer and the prognosis isn't very good. I am so terrified. He is so strong and healthy and happy. I hope surgery will help. Our other min pin, a little female, depends on him a lot. She would be very lonely without him.

We are what we eat and animals are no different than humans Think folks and you’ll charge what they are eating and I only trust myself 😊

giving dogs chemo is pure insanity....so is giving it to humans for that matter

Thank you for information wrong kind of cancer ..

What a sad thread, good luck everyone remember dogs give us there all the least we can do if offer any help we can when they need it.

nice.

My younger dog died two weeks ago suddenly, mine older one is now near her end. 10 years and so much…😞

Dr. Dressler, I am hoping you will help me! My 8 year old Shih Tzu was diagnosed with Lymphoma the first part of March. We had found a lump in his throat and called my vet right away. Thankfully that has been the only lump( in his lymph node and had a biopsy done. I bought and read your book and found him some natural supplements that treat cancer through Nature's Farmacy....-all including ingredients that you have recommended in your book. I started him on the fresh food diet plan that you recommended...He just finished his 8th treatment of CHOP and Prednizone. Instead of getting better and "experiencing benefits that I have been reading I see him getting worse and it's breaking my heart. He started out pretty good and maybe vomitting 1-2 times a week. I gave him the Cerenia when I felt he needed it. He had beautiful hair and it's coming out in handfuls...I had to give him a puppy cut. We have been doing our best keeping him active plying with him and just loving him but the last week or two he just does not loooooook good...he wants to be left alone most of the time...definitely not his old self. I am really worried! What am I doing?????? I ask my self that every day since I started. Do you have any suggestions on what I can do to get him to eat????? He won't eat anything lately if I put coconut oil.....or fish oil....or any ANY of the supplements in his food...I will try to hand feed him I purchased the Halo food....kibble and the canned....he won't eat it...I took out all of the supplements the last few days and he will only eat the meat.....no eggs no goat yogurt no cottage cheese.....just chicken or beef...He used to have a really healthy appetite and I have always fed him fresh food or very good dog food..(I thought)...I have another 10 year old Shih Tzu and she used to be soooooo finicky but she loves your diet and eats even the supplements (not the cancer treatments however...but does not mind the shrrooms). I just don't know what to do and if you could give me some advise I would be soooooo grateful. By the way your book is absolutely wonderful and OMG I have learned soooooo much and I share it with all my dog lover friends. I just wish I knew half of all this that you share....like the immunizations, spade, neuter....I could go on and on...please help me...what. Should I do should I stop the Chemo ? I am sooo worried...thank you so so much......

Hello, I am from Japan Tokyo, my dog has cancer he has been doing chop treatment since last 19th Oct,but he is not able to walk very much, only few step at the time. I think it because of anti cancer shot. I thikn no more treatment, he has to enjoy his life.

hi i have just lost my little dog from mass in his lungs heart broken i know what you are all going through from GB

Any advice on brain tumors? My 10 year old shih tzu has been walking in circles legs giving out when walking its been 4 days she's been on pain meds

Me and my wife just learned today that our dog has Sarcoma cancer. The tumor has been leaking and has gotten into his liver. Our Vet said we have about 1 to 10 months left with him.

my dog a good young boxer just died from having cancer in his face unfortunately it was a level 3 and it grew so fast in 1 month from being healthy the mass cell tumor developed very very fast in 1 month my rocky was gone i went to this veterinary and paid 600 dollars for a biopsy that was unnecessary why because the tumor was in a dangerous spot (the right side of his face/lip) right after i went there i went somewhere else for a different opinion and they honestly told me that all left to do was let him have a happy time because euthanasia was required while the first doctor wanted to send me to another doctor to discuss treatment giving me hope when they knew and im sure they knew it was impossible to save him and i know they are supposed to give hope but not in this case it seems as he wanted to profit out of the situation because they were trying to sell me their products at a very expensive price i mean for your friend and pet you would do anything and thats how they take advantage ..... i was very happy with the second veterinarian even tho i lost my dog she was very professional in my opinion trying to save me money that she could have easily charged just like the first people out there animal lovers be careful when you go to places that just want to profit out of your personal pain and if there was pet doctors like the one in this video honest and loving what they do people would not be loosing their pets it will always be expensive but its worth it when you see good results

8:something mark - early spay/neuter too early in animal's life dangerous

Our Chihuahua diagnosed with thyroid cancer. No symptoms, other than enlarged thyroid across throat & stuggle breathing/swallowing. $3000 for CT scan to see where else it is?

My Dog is coughing and it won't go, the vet says it's his lungs, but not had x Ray yet. Hope it can be treated, he is 13, I am absolutely gutted.

I year ago I brought my dog in for an off smelling breath and licking the air. They said her teeth looked fine. A year later and she has cancer on the back of her tongue. Hindsight is 20/20, but I should have asked for an xray or similar imaging.

I took my dog to the vet today, and he told me my boxer has a soft ball size mass in his abdomen. My dog lost alot of weight due to this. We cant afford ultrasound and surgery, because i cant get approved for credit. My vet gave me an antiflamatory medicine, and a pain medicine, and my dog started eating a little bit. What i want to know is as long as hes on the medicine for pain, and hes eating if he will be ok untill its time for him to go, or do i have to put him down. I been stressing out, and i love my dog, but i dont know what else to do.

This is an urgent question for Dr. Dressler. My precious cockapoo was diagnosed with SARDS a month ago. This is a little bit of a deviation from this video, but SARDS is also considered to be an autoimmune disease. Because of the conflicting information out there, I have not done the Plechner protocol. Please help me help my pup urgently. I know that some dogs have regained their vision and are doing great. I

Can my dog eat the ND food if he was diagnosed with cancer but 15 years old and had his toe amputated and we just want him to enjoy the rest of his life and just let him be as healthy as he can till then.

Has anyone used or heard of Yunnan Bayiao? My vet recommended it but I'm not sure about it after reading into it.

Go raw, grain free, organic. Supplement iodine to detox carcogenics. This is a good program, I'll keep updates on my poor well cared for dogs. Katrina is fighting mouth Cancer

My dog diagnosed with a tumour. Worst, he has a liver problem. My best friend is dying, and I am feeling bad about it. He is my baby.

Cancer is a huge money funnel today, in people today.

Dogs are the canary in the coal mine. Unfortunately testing for national security is priority and more important to men than the risk to life forms of all types.

have to put my dog down on Friday...he has prostate cancer

Whoa he saves dogs and stars one he show the league

Has anyone used brevecto? My dogs have...

Sir ,dog (piece of cancer) use kiye gye injection ki needle se human body par lag jane par cancer hone ke chance hai? Sir plz reply

Hard to concentrate on what the doc is saying while the puppy is crying on the background.

Why has bone cancer started in the mid 80 in dogs, seems it’s getting worse every year and a normal dog lives were 22 years and now it’s less than 10, mostly 6/8 years I personally blame dry kimmbles dog food…my 13 year old LGD is and has been on table scraps and raw meats of all kinds The two at a different location have kimmbles and there 5 and 7 Both have bone cancer now in the front legs It’s pretty clear to me and my Vet 😢😢😢

7:45 very interesting

What anesthesia is not going to exasperate cancer?

janettrios60, supplement your dog with high dose Vitamin C with bioflavonoids, Sodium Bicarbonate and wean it off commercial pellet food. Home cook dog food with lots of veggies i.e. Chopped spinach, carrots, peas, apples,cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower and herbs like parsley, oregano. Fruits like pineapple, bananas, papaya are great for snacks.

My Jack Russell cross dog has breast and skin cancer vet wants to put her to sleep as soon as possible as she says she's in Great pain my heart is broken but what is the best for her do I put her to sleep as soon as possible or wait a little longer as the vet is not giving her any more treatment she is 14 years old and I don't know which way to go do wait or let her go or wait a little longer anyone any advice

Talk about the costs associated to treat pet cancers.

My dog just got diagnosed with spleen cancer and they say that surgery can work to see if it benigh or malignant but if it’s spread they can’t do nothing about it is it worth it I’m scared

How is the enzyme used in Germany spelled- wolvazyme- or something like that?

No carbs?

My mom's dad's dog has cancer and I can see his bones I don't know what to do 😭

Found out yesterday from my vet that my cavalier king charles spaniel has a big tumor behind his left ear. Vet said it is cancer and that he doesn't recommend surgery because my dog has heart problem and his age is 11. He also said radiation will cost thousands of dollars. I feel helpless what can I do for my dog?

Is the increase in cancers diagnosed amongst pets who have been spayed and neutered at an early age proven to be causal? Or correlated?

My dog Sadie has melanoma in tongue. I'm starting holistic treatment. Any suggestions? We are just heartbroken.

Sir help my dog

You lost me at “Hill’s Science Diet.” Ugh... It’s not about ‘6 months longer.’ It’s about curing and I’ve read so many success stories...and they don’t feed Hill’s. 😕

What about cannabis? Your thoughts Doc

My dog was just diagnosed with lymphoma. We opted to use steroids. He has been in great spirits and has been doing well for the most part but the lymph nodes aren’t really getting any smaller and I just am not content with not trying anything else...I am curious as to whether or not he could actually have a fungal infection in the lymph nodes verses cancer. Is it possible that a lymphnode fungal infection could be mistaken for cancer? If so how could I find out and what could I try and treat him with? He had a full blood panel and he had a biopsy....would fungal infection show up in the blood panel or biopsy? I haven’t actually seen his results but I was told he had Lymes. We are treating him with Doxycycline and all symptoms went away except the swelling- we had the biopsy done as well and via phone conversation we were told that he did have lymphoma- again I am just making sure we are doing everything that we can and making sure that we aren’t treating him for the wrong thing or at least exploring ever option.

They need vitamin C like we do. I talked to a cairn breeder who's dog lived to 20 and she ga be him vitamin C supplement.

My dog is 3 years old and has leukaemia :(

Dog food s should not have ANY PRESERVATIVES and prob no rice, definate my no CORN. Corn makes it's own pesticide unless it's Organic.

Just found out that our sweet Sadie....Golden Retriever has cancer. We are heartbroken......

Literally hours after my mother's passing, my vet called to tell me my dog has osteosarcoma. Weeks later the vet offers euthanasia for my best friend. It's only been three months since my mother's passing and the pain is still new, but in deciding not to euthanize my dog I have been coping. My Jinger has been a real champion in coping with her new normal. She is less active but still the watch dog. Barks when she hears the doorbell and at strangers. Unfortunately our twice daily walks are a thing of the past due to her lamness, but she manages to walk up and down the stairs at a good pace. I stopped her from eating kibbles and cook her meals with more protein. Dr. Dressler's information is invaluable, I wish I had this three months ago. Jinger's pain is being managed daily with 30mlg of Piroxicam. She likes lying in the sun and has resorted to sitting outdoors watching nature. I don't know how much longer she will be with me but I am giving her more belly rubs and trying to give her quality of life. Dr. Dressler, keep up the great work and thank you for all the information....you are awesome. lthelady

im going to be putting down my dog today. sad hes a golden retriever male.

There is a very known herbalist who has done a lot for dogs Natural Rearing.....Juliette de Bairacli Levy....

I lost my 5 yr old buddy from lymphoma has to put him down but gave him the best quality of life 6 weeks after his diagnosis he was never the same dog and yes cancer is a death sentence for dogs stop sugar coating there is no cure until there's a good chance for a cure then that is when u consider a treatable cancer so the treatments u have now it just delays the inevitable the cancer returns

My mum 92 had no vacc

Best chance is to treat ur dog with rso oil and cbd and a healthy diet

Bad enough that humans have cancer. But why do dogs have to suffer that too?

Try Keto.

Please desing better dog cages, the poor dog look so claustrophobic 😪

you go to the vet and spend thousands of dollars on tests.

Wow. Anybody who watches this, please consult your own veterinarian. This guy is conflating a lot of information, leading to some misinformation. Also, look for advice from reputable, peer-reviewed sources that are not, at the same time, trying to sell you a book.

Try and find a Competent Vet you can trust...lol

These dogs are getting cancer because they have poor diets. These pet owners go to costco and buy these huge massive bags of food that just sit in their basement forever

Dogs are dying from cancer for two main reasons: the quality of food that they’re eating and that all the ground that we walk the dogs on is covered and round up weed killer. The dogs have their faces in it every single day.

Sorry, this chap talks much but says little and I'm not buying his book. Over all, not a lot of help
