I was referenced to this group from an individual from the Cancer Cares group. He said that this group is highly informative when it comes to dealing with...
Hello all, Though I researched for days about this cancer, I just now found your group and learned how widespread and hopeless this condition is. Our 15-y.o....
... Golden...Bailey...we got him 2 months after we lost our Husky-shep- lab-chow mix....Kody...to this dreadful cancer on April 4, 2005. His was in the heart...
Sadly no...I lost my holistically raised 8 yr old wire fox terrier to this horrific cancer three wks following the dx. He was organically rawfed and had never...
I had a talk with my vet today, who is wonderfully always willing to talk at any length about pet things. He says that no matter how careful we are about what...
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...
I had never heard of it until the necropsy on my dog. One evening he did not finish his food (unheard of) and acted sluggish, belly a little distended. I...
I guess that is a matter of opinion. I think we were lucky to have caught it in time. Our dog never suffered from surgery and other efforts and had a...
We just lost our 7 year old Black Lab mix to this terrible disease. Freddy was a healthy 130 lb solid boy. He was not fat, although had a tendency to tip the...
So sorry about Freddy. We lost our Kody to this horrible disease on April 4, 2005. He was diagnosed on Friday April 1 and was gone by Monday April 4. He...
... Maybe yearly check-ups should include a blood screening for things they don't normally check, like the blood clotting and platelet count as explained on...
Good idea....however.....maybe an annual checkup by an oncologist would be a good idea since they actually deal with cancers where Vets are more multi ...
that is what I am trying to figure out- what to do with my other dogs. I asked the vet about it, and he said when they reach age 5 or so they can also do...
Yearly x-rays sure couldn't hurt. Sounds like the only way hemangiosarcoma is going to be detected early enough to do anything is through a proactive ...
... I think that is a great idea. I have, Sandy, a 12 year old Shep-X, and Bailey,a recently aquired 4 year old Golden Retriever. I am concerned about Bailey...
I think anything we can do to improve chances for our dogs is worth doing‹and if a yearly x-ray would help, I¹d do it. I¹ve also read that hemangiosarcoma...
X rays apparently do not detect the tumors, you need an ultrasound to find anything. They did Xrays on Sumner 3 days before he died and said there was no...
An ultrasound is how the detected this type of cancer in our Golden. Unfortunately, symptoms appeared to make an ultrasound necessary...so we were still to...
Saw this site....I wonder if anyone is interested in doing some kind of a group raffle or something to raise some donations a couple of times a year? I would...
Hi all, I'm new to this list, but certainly glad I found it. My 10-year old lab, Koa, was diagnosed with hemangiosarcoma on April 24, 2006 and had his spleen...
Emily.....You and Koa will be in our thoughts and prayers. I have a question for you......Have you been giving Koa any glucosamine/chondroitin? Our Kody,...
... suddenly. Freddy was on Cosequin DS, as is my 12 year old Shep Sandy. That is supposed to be natural and no side effects. My Vet suggests that I give one...
