Why are so many dogs developing cancer.
I have a German Shepherd called Max. He is eight years old and recently had a one centimeter lump removed from his right ear, by the vet in the village where I live, which has been sent away for analysis. The result came back and it is a Ceruminous gland adenocarcinoma tumour. I took him over to Nottingham to a veterinarian hospital, and he is booked in for October 13th for further surgery to remove the base of the tumour, the surrounding lining of the ear,and removal of the ear cartilage, and after has recovered it is a few sessions of radiotherapy. Naturally I am worried about it all as it came as a shock. Has anyone experience this with their pet? I would be very grateful for any help.

You should try treating the cancer with hemp or marijuana oil:

Did you chip your dog? Put an implant in the dog or pet?

Re: Why are so many dogs developing cancer.
That's easy. Vaccines (first and foremost), commercial dogfood (feed them RAW), and microchipping.

No, he hasn't had a chip implanted. I don't feed him table scraps, he eats Bakers Dry Complete dog food. I trust the dog food that he has always eaten. I had a Rough Collie before I had Max, and she was fed the same dog food, and lived for nearly seventeen and a half years, which is an excellent lifespan for a dog. The only thing which I suspect is that it could have something to do with his annual vaccinations and there could be link.

Adenovirus is commonly found in vaccines. Cancer is very profitable for vets too.

SAMe is the bodies natural AZT with no bad side effects. SAMe will cure all cancers. It's cheap and at available at health food stores

No, but he does get regularly showered, he doesn't like the bath. I use tea tree shampoo and conditioner for his coat. He is groomed everyday using an electric flea grooming comb rather than using pesticide on his coat.

Re: Why are so many dogs developing cancer.
I don't think there are a disproportional amount of dogs getting cancer compared to humans. Unfortunately just like humans some dogs will get it and some will get it younger than others. I'm sorry to hear about your dog but it sounds like they hopefully got it in time? Sending good thoughts your pooches way hf

Re: Why are so many dogs developing cancer.
It took me 5 minutes to find the ingredients in Baker's on their website and the first ingredient was cereals. No wonder it was hard to find. I wouldn't give this to my pets.

Diet is what usually causes cancer. My mother has been feeding her dogs Pedigree forever and they all die of cancer within ten years. All of them were dobermans. I've tried to point that out to her but . . .
Forgive your enemies, it messes with their heads.

Low B vitamins and amino acids cause cancer. Body needs Bs and amino acids to for DNA methylation that keeps body free of cancer.

Re: Why are so many dogs developing cancer.
It is pet food, and vaccines..not all vets look at it as a way to make money though. Many are changing recommendations for frequency of vaccine. It would be nice to be able to just use nosodes..but until you have stayed up for a week straight trying to save a hospital full of parvo dogs, don't completely rule out some vaccination.

The foods are horrible, whether it is gmo cereals, rendered meat products, or just the processing requiring high heat and extrusion and denaturing proteins, killing all beneficial bacteria, and destroying helpful enzymes in 'living' food.

Breeding and environmental pathogens/toxins are also issues now. I absolutely HATE febreze and a few other cleaning/deodorizing products and would not put them near a pet or human for anything.

I am sorry for your situation and wish you luck. You may want to consider followup with a naturopathic veterinarian to maximize your dogs own immune system in order to help prevent recurrence.

Good luck!

The dogs are choosing to get cancer...
Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.

What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!

I have also heard that the plastic dog houses - igloos - cause tumors.

I was told that by someone and tended to believe it because my neighbor had two hunting dogs, both with tumors, that slept in igloos. But don't know for sure.

If you want your dog to reach its full neurological capacities never ever allow it to drink fluorinated water.

Especially in the first two years of development.

When I was a kid dogs NEVER used to get cancer.

It was unheard of.

The present epidemic of canine cancer is the result of lazy and stupid owners taking the easy way out and feeding their dogs "pet food", though I imagine vaccines probably have something to do with it too.

Vaccines tend to cause the very ailment they are intended to prevent, but much later in the animal's life.

Re: Why are so many dogs developing cancer.
I read a post here, on glp, regarding toxicity of
Tea Tree Oil regarding pets. I was amazed as I am
a frequent user of TTO and many other herbs.

I used to add a few drops to my 'steam kettle' on
our wood stove. I no longer do this as I would be
endangering my 'little darlings'...

If anyone can locate that thread, or add to this...

Really sorry OP, hope everything turns out ok.
