What are the common dog cancer signs? Dog cancer symptoms? Cat cancer signs? Cat cancer symptoms? There are 10 cancer signs and symptoms that pet owners shouldn’t ignore. This video is part one. But, just because your pet has any of these symptoms doesn’t necessarily mean they have cancer, but you should bring your pet to your veterinarian. Early detection is so important. If we can catch cancer early and take our pets to the veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment, we can greatly increase their chances of survival. The key is knowing what those signs and symptoms are. Cancer is often treatable, and treatment is well-tolerated in the majority of dogs and cats.

In this video, Dr Sue covers steroids and cancer patients, including why we use them, what cancers they are effective for, what are the side effects, and why you should NOT start them right away if your dog has lymphoma. Cats are different than dogs when it comes to steroids. Dr Sue explains why you can start steroids for cat lymphoma, but which steroid is better in cats. The most common oral steroid is prednisone, and the most common cancers we use it it for are lymphoma in dogs and cats and mast cell tumors. Dr Sue also covers how they work, side effects and drugs to avoid if your dog is prescribed them. Stay tuned for part 2 where she will be answering your questions on steroids and cancer in pets.

In this video, you’ll learn how to record voice memos on your phone. Voice memos are a great way to record your consultation with a cancer specialist like me, or any type of veterinary specialist specialist (internist, surgeon, cardiologist, dermatologist, neurologist, etc), or your primary care veterinarian. Cancer is scary, and it is so hard to remember all that information being discussed at the veterinarian. Maybe a family member or friend could not come to the appointment. It is so important you can listen to the information again after the appointment, and easily share it. Dr Sue will show you how you can easily record and then share these recordings with family member or friends who could not come to the appointment. And Dr Sue shares her favorite way on how to make sure you have all your questions with you and ready to go at the appointment.
