Found a Lump on My Dog and Other Bad Signs | David Vail, DVM, MS, Dip. ACVIM (Oncology) #254
Épisode 254
lundi 2 septembre 2024 • Durée 27:44
When cancer makes your dog’s body its home, changes occur. Sometimes those changes are deep in the body, undetectable. But others show up as lethargy, weight loss, digestive upset, and, sometimes, physical lumps and bumps you can feel.
Dr. David Vail, a veterinary oncologist at the University of Wisconsin, joins us to discuss the early warning signs of dog cancer. Every time we catch cancer early, we improve the potential for a positive outcome!
Key Takeaways:
Importance of Early Detection: Catching cancer early equals more effective treatment and better outcomes.
Monitoring Lumps and Bumps: Regularly check, measure, and document any lumps or bumps on your dog.
Track and Record Symptoms: Keep detailed records of any changes in your dog’s health, including photos and measurements of abnormalities.
Investigate Non-Specific Symptoms: Signs like weight loss, lethargy, or abnormal odors could indicate a serious issue and should be evaluated by a vet.
Routine Check-Ups Matter: Ensure your dog, especially as they age, has regular veterinary exams to catch any potential health concerns early.
Caution with New Screening Tests: While promising, newer tests like liquid biopsies are still being developed and should be considered carefully.
Emergency Care Guidance: Know when symptoms like difficulty breathing or persistent vomiting warrant immediate veterinary attention.

Épisode 154
lundi 14 février 2022 • Durée 19:48
Dog lovers frequently wonder if there is a more natural option that could be used instead of pharmaceuticals to treat their dogs. The answer is… sometimes!
Bam Bam has elevated calcium levels in his blood, and his human wants to know if she can swap out some of his medications. Dr. Nancy Reese breaks down how the medications prednisone, Lasix, and Palladia work and why they might have been chosen to be part of the treatment plan, as well as some natural options that might work to help out a bit.
Although a pharmaceutical may be just what your pet needs for the best results, there are often natural remedies that can help to support conventional treatments.

What to Bring to Your First Oncology Appointment | Dr. Megan Duffy #153
Épisode 153
lundi 7 février 2022 • Durée 28:39
That first oncology consult can be overwhelming. Veterinary oncologist Megan Duffy says to expect the consult to take an hour or more – and most of that time is talking over your dog’s case and your treatment options. This is YOUR time to ask all of the questions you have about your dog’s diagnosis and treatment plan.
Once you have an appointment scheduled, ask all of the veterinary offices that your dog has been to in the past two years to send your dog’s records to the oncologist. Sending all records, bloodwork results, x-rays, and other imaging ahead of time will give the oncologist time to review your dog’s case before your appointment so he or she is up to speed.
To make sure you are prepared, do just a little bit of research on the type of cancer your dog has before the appointment – Dr. Duffy recommends sticking with veterinary sites and not going too far down the rabbit hole. She also recommends what things to bring with you and think about before your appointment – check out our checklist, available on Dog Cancer Answers Dot Com.
And remember – you don’t have to make any final decisions during the first consult. This is your time to get all of the details so you can digest and make the best choice for you and your dog.

What To Do With Leftover Dog Medications | Dr. Nancy Reese #152
Épisode 152
lundi 31 janvier 2022 • Durée 20:05
If your dog has died or just doesn’t need a particular medication any more, you might find yourself with some extra pills. Keeping them around the house isn’t ideal due to risks to kids and pets, but what CAN you do with them?
Dr. Nancy Reese discusses why flushing leftover meds is not a good idea, and offers advice on finding a local drug takeback program or asking your veterinarian to dispose of more dangerous medications, such as oral chemotherapy drugs, for you.

Stage 3 Melanoma in Dogs: What Can We Do Next? | Dr. Nancy Reese #151
Épisode 151
lundi 24 janvier 2022 • Durée 20:52
Oral Melanoma is one of the more aggressive cancers in dogs. The gold standard of treatment for this cancer is radiation to shrink the tumor, followed by the canine melanoma vaccine to train the dog’s immune system to attack the cancer cells. But what do you do when this treatment fails?
Dr. Nancy Reese discusses the typical treatment progression for oral melanoma, as well as some additional therapies that might be beneficial for added support.

FETCH a Cure: Financial Help for Dog Cancer | Joanne Silverman #150
Épisode 150
lundi 17 janvier 2022 • Durée 36:19
FETCH a Cure was founded by Mike Holland, Tonie Stevens, and Ryan Traylor after Mike’s dog was diagnosed with osteosarcoma back in 2006. At that time there were few resources for dog cancer in the Richmond, VA area.
Since its humble beginnings as a back-room operation in a catering business, FETCH a Cure now provides continuing education opportunities for veterinarians, funding for dog cancer treatment within the Virginia-Maryland-DC area, and has even bought a building that now hosts both a veterinary oncology practice complete with a radiation room and a separate holistic veterinary practice.
One of the things that makes FETCH unique is that the organization asks that owners who benefit from their cancer treatment funding volunteer their time to help other dogs and owners get the assistance they need. Volunteering could consist of helping out at an event, hosting a fundraiser, or even delivering pamphlets to veterinary practices to spread the word.
FETCH a Cure currently only serves the Virginia, Maryland, and Washington DC area of the US, but they are looking to expand. They also have support groups that are open to dog lovers anywhere.

She lives in Richmond, Virginia with her daughter Emma, her dog Jack, and her cat Molly.

Dog Vomiting: Should I Call My Vet? | Dr. Nancy Reese #149
Épisode 149
lundi 10 janvier 2022 • Durée 21:23
Vomiting can be caused by a variety of things, ranging from eating garbage to a serious illness. It can also be a side effect of chemotherapy treatment.
In most cases, vomiting once isn’t a big concern. If the dog vomits multiple times within a single day, vomits for several days in a row, or has other symptoms of illness in addition to the vomiting, it’s time to seek veterinary care.
Dr. Nancy discusses several different treatment options depending on the underlying cause of your dog’s vomiting. Cerenia (maropitant) is great for preventing nausea, while some over-the-counter antacids can combat stomach acid overproduction. And making sure your dog stays hydrated is always a good step for health!
