I would be seeking the assistance of a holistic vet who specializes in Cancer. We had a Newfoundland that died of bone cancer (this was before we knew about holistic care and proper diet). He lived for about 4 months after diagnoses. I wish I knew then what I knew now :(

There is a lady on another board whose dog was diagnosed with an untreatable cancer and the vets gave her no hope. She did tons of research, talked to holistic vets etc. Her dog lived for about 7 years past being diagnosed due to holistic care. If you go on this board thedogfoodproject.com She can point you in the right direction and possibly give you all kinds of tips from going to a complete raw organic diet to cutting out grains (grains feed cancer). She also wrote a book about her dogs cancer and how she went about helping her dog.

Another vet who would be great to have a consultation with is Dr Pasternak. He mentioned dogs with bone cancer do extremely well having amputation done. He does not recommend chemotherapy. There are come supplements you can look into as well, of course you would need the help of a holistic vet to put together a diet plan and which supplements are the ones to give.

Carnivora - immune stimulating and modulating effects are shown in the rebalancing of CD4/CD8 ratio. Other documented effects are increased debris clearance.

Enzyme therapy - Wobenzyme imported from Germany is the best. It is composed of pancreatin, trypsin, chymotrypsin, bromelain, papain, and rutin and is entericly coated to be absorbed in the small intestines and therefore absorbed in the bloood.

Essiac - this strengthens the immune system, reduces toxic side effects of many drugs, increases energy level, and has anti-inflammatory effects.

You could also research Lapacho & Pacific Yew.

I wish you the best of luck, I know how devastating this disease is.
