www.naturalawakenings.com/2020/09/30/329556/cancer-free-pets-five-ways-to-help-keep-them-healthy “Veterinarians are seeing cancer in more and younger pets these days than ever before. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, approximately one in four dogs will develop cancer at some point in life, including almost half of dogs over the age of 10. But taking practical steps can help lower a pet’s risk...." My notes: Just like w/ us needing to be proactive in our healthcare, we need to be with our pets too. Ask questions & if you are not satisfied with the answer, seek another provider.

www.barkandwhiskers.com/2024-03-10-the-c-word-in-petsStory at-a-glance Estimates are that 1 in 5 cats and 1 in 4 dogs will develop tumors during their lifetime, and almost half of dogs over age 10 will develop cancer Common canine cancers include osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer; mammary tumors; skin tumors such as mast cell tumors; and lymphoma, a cancer that forms in the lymphatic system Common feline cancers include mammary tumors, lymphoma, and squamous cell carcinoma, a type of skin cancer Many cancer symptoms in pets are nonspecific and seen in many other disorders, which is why knowing what to look for and prompt veterinary attention are required There are steps every pet parent can take to help reduce the risk of cancer in furry family members My notes: Just like I say with humans. With all the modern technology, medical advancements, why are we sicker than ever before? Because we rely on them too much & not eat real food, get exercise, lower stress. Our environment is toxic so we have to work harder at staying healthy. Edit: Link is no longer available so replacing it with valid one.
