Re: Osteocarcinoma of the Jaw

Have you looked at cancer starving diets and immune system supplements? We have unfortunately lost several dogs over the years to cancer and found that these helped a lot.

Janni, my second rottweiler and heart dog (Chrome's mother and Elfi's grandmother), had osteosarcoma of the jaw towards the end - she was 12 when it was dx'd and 13 when she passed away. She had already had several mastectomies for metastatic breast tumors and had been on a cancer starving diet since she was about seven. We also used Lew Olsen's supplement, Berte's Blend.

Her tumor didn't bleed a lot, it was the smell that got to us, but it didn't bother her, so we just learned to live with it
