The Nu.Q® is one of my top requests to do more posts on. So I'm starting a series to answer all the FAQs about it.
This game-changing test has become more widely available in the US, Italy, Portugal, Singapore and is available but limited in Europe. MORE countries coming soon!
And it's become less expensive over the last year. And I love that we now have something like this in the oncology field. 💙
In the US, you can now get the test from Heska , IDEXX, and the Texas A&M GI lab. And excitingly, the Heska point-of-care Element i+ is shipping soon.
The earlier we can detect cancers, the better the prognosis will be for our patients and your pet, and that is why this test is so important.
Have you run this test on a patient, or has your pet had this test done? Lmk in the comments!
Watch to learn 3️⃣ reasons your dog MAY NOT be a good candidate for STELFONTA®.
Even though I love this intratumoral mast cell tumor treatment, it's not always the best choice for every MCT case or patient.
This is why it's (always) essential to consult with your veterinarian or oncologist, no matter what you hear on the internet, to discover the best treatment method for your pet.
Share any questions you have below.
☠️ It's National Animal Poison Prevention Week - so this post was a must! ☠️
Even though this might not seem directly related to cancer, it's important to know some of the toxic foods and things for dogs, so I felt this was important to share.
Have you ever encountered a poison scare with your pet? Tell me about it! 😬
Tag a pet parent who should have this information. (Which is every pet parent you know 😝.)
There are so many other toxic "things" to dogs that I wasn't able to list in this post. ![]()
Do you know of one you want to share? Inform us all!

There are many more accounts I could mention, but social only allowed me to include 20 😭.![]()
P.S. The amazing women who lift me up #IRL are my mom, my sisters, and of course, my girl dogs Penelope and Matilda.
PPS. Matilda is fine, she just doesn't like to come down the stairs now because of her arthritis. We're managing. 😌
I'm proud to be a woman and a mom and to have achieved what I have in this space.
If you are a mom, especially one of the #DVMmoms, I'm rooting for your continued success! It might not always be easy, but we can break glass ceilings, even in veterinary medicine. ![]()
there are so many other amazing women out there, tag a few of your favorites in the comments below, to show them some appreciation. 
🐾 General High-Risk Canine Cancer Breeds Part 2 🐾
I hate that dogs get cancer, but unfortunately, many do. And knowing that your pet can be at high risk for cancer helps you to know to work with your veterinarian to take preventative measures against certain diseases and discuss screening tests to detect cancer earlier.
Which can literally be lifesaving in some cases!
What kind of dog do you have, and do you know if they’re at risk for anything? Are they on this list?
Did you miss part 1️⃣?
