Hello everyone, I spoke with the breeder of our Golden last night and received some very sad news. It turns out, that out of a litter of 7 puppies (4 males, 3...
It's all so very sad. The breeder we got Sumner from lied to me when I spoke to her when he was dying and when I was trying to find out what was going on....
The thing I don't understand however, is what about the cases such as my dog..a totally sound and constitutionally healthy rawfed, holistically raised wire fox...
If you havent done so yet, go to www.vetinfo.com/dencyclopedia/dehemsarcoma.html. This details HSA pretty good. Goldens are a very popular breed and as a ...
... prefer pure breds over mixed breeds. HSA is like any cancer...just give it a place to thrive..and it will. Our Kody was a husky-shepard- lab-chow mix....
I agree with Mike! We lost our golden "Nittany" in somewhat the same manner, healthy and romping and playing on a Wednesday, diagnosed on Friday and sent to...

What I am really wondering about is why don't more vets and dog owners know about hemangiosarcoma? We lost our seven year old golden a few weeks ago. Like all...
I did not learn about this disease until after my dog died. I am wondering if any of you were told about it by your regular vets, or only by oncologists? If we...
Our vet knew right away. The symptoms were classic. Lethargic, lack of appetite and so on. Diarreah was what made her xray our Golden and there it was -...
We first learned about it from the emergency vet at the 24-hr. clinic because the very first symptoms happened at night on a night when our vet was not home...
