Chemotherapy and Cancer Treatment

Just like humans, animals are also susceptible to many types of cancer.

They can develop cancer (abnormal cell growth) of the blood, the bone, the skin, the liver, etc.

 Spaying and neutering dogs and cats at an early age can prevent some forms of  reproductive cancer, such as mammary and testicular/prostate cancer. 

Recent advancements in cancer treatment may extend the lives of some pets dramatically. These may involve a combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. An accurate diagnosis is necessary before we may begin any form of treatment.
