My Bozley was diagnosed with lymphoma this morning and not a good one, maybe 6 more weeks....I know it's just a number that can change.  I read about the supplements from only natural pet, which is a site that I use alot, and already put him on b vitamins....glad to know that was a good track to go down...We are on pred and will do a detox for the liver with tictures.  He finally ate a little while ago, chicken with a sauce of Gerber baby chicken dinner and ground flax.  He's also on pepsid.  Anyone else have other supplement advice?  My vet knows how I am with them and that I do alot of eastern med and food therapy and said to run with what I want to do.   Any help would be appreciated.  He is still a wonderful, happy boy who loves hugs and still happy.  It's important that the quality is still there.  He doesn't even seem ill, except for the not eating.  But with the Pred, that will get it back.

I don't have any advice but I am very sorry to hear your news.  You and Bozley are in our thoughts!  I hope you find something to keep him comfortable.

My baby Ruff died 2 1/2 years ago with lymphoma. We did all of the natural stuff, the only thing I did not see listed was a white tea extract that we also used. He was fine and then it seemed to change over night. Please enjoy the time you have now, I am sooo sorry for your diagnosis. It will not be a pleasant road. you are in my thoughts and prayers.

I lost my best friend, Scooter, a year ago to hemangiosarcoma, a deadly and fast spreading cancer.  I am so sorry for the pain you will be going through.  My only "advice" is to DO EVERY THING YOU THINK WILL HELP.  Don't hold back.   You only have this one chance so DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO.    You won't regret tryng any thing you think will help.  

Again, I am so sorry for this diagnosis.  Love that precious animal while you can!!!

Had we known what that disease could do to a dog, ours would have been put to sleep the day after the diagnosis- for his sake. It does all change, as someone said, over night- and ours suffered horribly while various tests were being run- even though in the end, there was no treatment...if we ever encounter lymphoma in a pet again, we will do the humane thing and say good bye before the misery begins. Until there is some form of help, letting them go is about all we have to give- and it is very hard.

My cat developed what we thought was a sinus infection in December of last year.  By mid January it was obvious that she had a large tumor growing in her sinus.  We lost her a week later.  Enjoy what time you have with your furpal.  Best of luck.  My thoughts are with you.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and Bozley. My only advice to you is just hug, kiss & hold him as much as possible. I just lost my dog on Wednesday & what I wouldn't give to be able to see her again. Cherish all the time you have with him.

 

Love & Kisses,

The Henry Family

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this stressful time.  I had to put my boy Barney down approx 6 months ago with the same.  Just love him everyday like there's no tomorrow.  Remember miracles do happen.

love him - thats all you can do - and know that you gave him a good life and he made you happy, thats all they ask for. Thats what my vet said to me when we had to make a decision to put our paka to sleep. It was the hardest thing I ever did but knowing that we gave her the best life and she made us so happy made me feel a little better with our decision.

My prayers are with you.

Appreciate the time you do have. I had to put my dog down this past Thursday due to AdvancedLiver tumors. Unfortunately, it happened over night with the diagnosis and only hours to live. I had not as much time to say goodbye. That has been the hardest thing for me, wishing I knew and spending a month of treating the symptoms and not knowing he was in pain with cancer until it was the end. Wishing that I had had more time, wondering if I could have done more. Just love them as much as you can and pray for the best. I am sorry for the bad news.
