I don't believe it!

[IRENE FROM TAMPA]

makes you think that all of this cancer MUST be environmental since even animals are contracting cancer no.

Unreal.

I am sorry, I know how much you can love your pets. My little maltese is going on 17 years in a couple of months and I know that I will be heartbroken her time comes. But they have served us as wonderful companions and given us much love and good memories. Maybe everything will be ok with your dog. Hope so.

Prayers for your mother...

Take care

I am sorry to hear about your dog! Makes you wonder, how a poor dog can contact cancer but animals do. It is so scary. Keep us posted on what he has for treatment if you decide to go that route. Will pray that God will guide you in making the right choices for his well being as well as comfort. Sending you a hug, Sandy

What are skin mets... ??

Sorry for th late reply but yes Moon is still alive. He has had the tumor for over a year now. It is growing but seems to be at a slow rate. When he gets too tired to take his walks, my husband wraps a strap around his stomach and lifts it slightly to help support and take the weight off his legs. The vet said that the tumor will eventually break the bone and will develop it's own blood supply and be messy with blood. We have not decided to put him down yet becuase he has big appetite and still enjoys playing with us and our other pets. When we think he is in pain, a pain pill every couple days seems to help. (just like me, I guess, Ha!!) Aren't his pictures beautiful, my big white boy has given me lots of love throughout the years.

Malena, I'm sorry for all the burden you are handling right now. Illness in pets, to me, is one of the hardest things to face. I too lost a dog to cancer in 2005 while in treatment for met progression. I had no idea how much it can tear you up. Anyway, I'm hoping and praying for you, mom and the puppy that solutions can be created and be ffective and that the sun will shine for all of you.
