50% of dogs over the age of ten years show some form of cancer. The disease is first on the list of causes of death of our beloved friends worldwide. There are ways to limit the event? Scientists argue that there is. 

Dog Cancer


Research about Dog Cancer :


Keep your dog in ideal body weight and shape. Research has 
shown that obesity is a major cause for many diseases in dogs between them and cancer. Proper, balanced and correct amount of nutrition is one of the most important things to keep in mind. A dog that eats must be exercised to burn energy. Do not neglect daily exercise your dog. Remember that every dog (breed-age) have different exercise needs. Passive smoking harms both humans and our pets. The dog who "smokes" us less likely to develop cancer. If we can not cut it when we smoke at least not in front. Finally neutering greatly reduces the chances of developing cancer in the reproductive organs and breast. 

Cancer in dogs affects the skin, bones and internal organs. Some forms are slow growing and other very quickly. 

Recently conducted a survey (2013) which investigated the genetic predisposition of the animal to develop lymphosarcoma. Briefly research supports that the GST enzymes (enzymes) have the ability to "detoxify" the body of the dog by carcinogens. If there is a defect in the gene responsible for the production of these enzymes, there are six times more likely to develop lymphoma

While still researching the more we know about our dog. In the future with the knowledge that we can be safer and more likely to prevent, and not because of Leipzig, the chances of developing cancer. 


Signs Of Dog Cancer :

It is therefore very important to be able to recognize signs of cancer in our dog. Early diagnosis can give him many more years of life. The scientists argue that we should visit the veterinarian every month for formal examination. If something seems too expensive or you should increase your powers of observation. 
  • Abnormal tumors that do not go away. 
  • Wounds that do not heal. 
  • Lack of appetite.
