Cancer in Dogs

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in older dogs. Common types include lymphoma, mast cell tumors, and osteosarcoma. Symptoms vary but can include lumps, weight loss, lethargy, and changes in appetite.

Early detection is crucial for treating cancer effectively. Regular vet visits and monitoring your dog for any unusual signs can help catch cancer early. Treatment options may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and palliative care to manage symptoms.
