Hi Chivas. I don't know if they do this to dogs or not yet. I wish they did when Sheena had cancer.
My neighbor across the street had a bone tumor in his leg. This was over six months ago, and he still has his leg! They filled the bone with a medical cement to reenforce it, and he is doing great. Of course we all know the cancer will spread, but he is still walking around and living life. The bone tumor was a secondary cancer. He has luekemia (spelling).
I don't know if it is an option for dogs or not. I would think if they are a candidate for the limb sparing procedure, they might be able to have this instead. I am pretty sure you already know about this, but it was really new for me when he had it done. It made me sad that the only option we had was amputation.
